An Evening with Tappan Wilder, Celebrating Thornton Wilder

  • Sausalito Books by the Bay 100 Bay Street Sausalito, CA, 94965 United States (map)

Since 1997 Tappan Wilder has served as the literary executor for his uncle Thornton Wilder, the celebrated author of Our Town, The Bridge of San Luis Rey and many more internationally known prize-winning  plays and novels.

 What has it been like managing Thornton Wilder’s intellectual property?  What was his uncle and HIS Wilder family like? Drawing on readings by local actors, images and recording clips, Sausalito resident Tappan Wildern paints a brilliant picture of the man he knew as “Uncle Thorny”.

The event is free to attend, but please register in advance at EVENTBRITE.
