Elizabeth Winthrop Alsop with Tim Gunn, Daughter of Spies: Wartime Secrets, Family Lies

This event took place in the Members' Room on November 14, 2022.
The daughter of a famous journalist and his young British bride looks backward at her parents’ storied love affair in London during World War II, discovering that their wartime secret-keeping became a habit that undermined the peacetime marriage. In this special event, Alsop converses with Tim Gunn who, as the son of an FBI agent and a CIA librarian, grew up in the same strangely muted and ominous world that was cold war Washington.
