We’ll discuss Lorne: The Man Who Invented Saturday Night Live by Susan Morrison. Books are available at the Adult and Teen Services Desk one month before each discussion.

A definitive biography of Lorne Michaels, the man behind America’s most beloved comedy show. Lorne will introduce you to him, in full, for the first time. With unprecedented access to Michaels and the entire SNL apparatus, Susan Morrison takes readers behind the curtain for the lively, up-and-down, definitive story of how Michaels created and maintained the institution that changed comedy forever.
