Eric Bogosian, “a born storyteller with perfect pitch” (New York Times), comes to the GC to present his new book Operation Nemesis: The Assassination that Avenged the Armenian Genocide. In a riveting narrative rich with historical detail, Bogosian gives the first full account of a secret plot by assassins, in 1921, to avenge the deaths of almost one million victims of genocide. A well-known actor, playwright, and novelist of Armenian descent, Bogosian was a Pulitzer Prize finalist for his play Talk Radio; he has received several Obie Awards, a Guggenheim fellowship, and two NEA fellowships. Presented by GC Public Programs. Cosponsored by the Middle East and Middle Eastern American Center.
