Author Talk with former NPR journalist Sean Carberry Aug 27, 2023 from 02:00 PM to 05:00 PM — O Museum in The Mansion, 2020 O Street NW, — by admin
Admission includes: — Self Guided Tour of O Museum — Cash Bar NOTE: — Tour starts at 2pm — Book signing at 3pm _____________________ Sean Carberry will be talking about his new book "Passport Stamps: Searching the World for a War to Call Home" Join us. ABOUT THE BOOK: (www.passport-stamps.com) A candid, darkly comic, and emotionally naked tale of a former NPR journalist who—driven by grief, loss, and the desire to find his “tribe”—seeks solace in the world’s most dangerous places and his pursuit to join the ranks of combat-tested war correspondents. The learning curve of reporting in hostile environments is steep and at times comical, at others nearly fatal. He encounters a lot of dust, ragged infrastructure, weaponry, scary driving, whiskey, lust, and way too much food poisoning. When the assignment ends, he is left to confront the mental and emotional impact of the years of danger, death, and destruction. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Sean Carberry is a Peabody Award-winning journalist, foreign policy writer, and author of Passport Stamps: Searching the World for a War to Call Home, a memoir of his journey through war zones as a public radio journalist en route to becoming NPR’s last Kabul-based correspondent. Sean became a journalist in the months before 9/11, and since then he has traveled to dozens of countries to report on conflicts, uprisings, elections, independence movements, and development efforts in places like Iraq, Libya, Sudan, and Yemen. Currently, he covers the defense industry as managing editor of National Defense Magazine and writes about foreign policy and international affairs on Substack. In addition to his journalism career, Mr. Carberry served in the Department of Defense Office of Inspector General as managing editor of a portfolio of public and classified reports on wars and counterterrorism operations in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria, the Philippines, and Africa. Prior to entering journalism, Mr. Carberry was a recording engineer and producer in the Boston area. He received a Gold Record for his engineering work with Susan Tedeschi and taught at Berklee College of Music. He has a B.A. from Lehigh University and an M.P.A. from the Harvard Kennedy School. He lives in Washington, D.C. with his cat Squeak who he rescued from the streets of Kabul. Advanced online reservations required.

Paul Williams' Birthday Benefit Sep 18, 2023 from 07:30 PM to 10:00 PM — O Museum in The Mansion, 2020 O Street NW, — by admin
To celebrate his birthday Paul Williams' is giving back! Join him and some very special guests at O Museum for an evening full of music, love, and joy. Proceeds will benefit: O Museum in The Mansion & FreeHorse Arts (freehorsearts.org/) VIP MEET & GREET + CELEBRATION: 7:30PM ($500.00 select under add-ons) CELEBRATION IN-PERSON: 8:30PM ($250/person) Paul Williams is one of the most beloved and respected music creators in the world. His songs and scores have received six Oscar, nine Grammy, six Golden Globe and two Emmy nominations. “The Rainbow Connection,” from The Muppet Movie, is one of two of Williams’ songs that grace AFI’s List of Top Movie Songs of All Time. More recent honors include album of the year Grammy, as co-writer and featured artist on Daft Punk’s Random Access Memories; and a World Soundtrack Award with Gustavo Santaolalla for their work on The Book of Life. Paul is also passionate about recovery and works tirelessly to destigmatize alcoholism and addiction. His humorous observations of life, love, and creativity has been shared in a best-selling book entitled Gratitude and Trust: Six Affirmations That Will Change Your Life which was featured on Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday. While publicly lauded for his work as a songwriter, author and actor, most recently for his recurring role with Billy Bob Thornton in Goliath, Paul predicts he’ll be remembered for playing Little Enos in the Smokey and the Bandit trilogy and for his lyrics to “The Love Boat” theme. However, it is the lyrics from Bugsy Malone that aptly sum up his philosophy: “You give a little love and it all comes back to you; You’re gonna’ be remembered for the things that you say and do”. (Coke commercial lyrics) Although most people first came to know Mr. Williams as one of Johnny Carson's recurring favorites on The Tonight Show, or as an actor in dozens of films, television comedies and dramas, it is his musical legacy that continues to inspire. "We've Only Just Begun", "Rainy Days and Mondays", "You and Me Against the World" and "An Old Fashioned Love Song" all remain pop classics. Privately a devoted father and publicly lauded for his work as a songwriter, performer, actor and humanitarian, he is also President and Chairman of ASCAP.
