DANIEL BROOK
Monday, May 5 at 7:30 p.m. at Town Hall Seattle, 1119 Eighth Avenue

Co-presented with the TOWN HALL CENTER FOR CIVIC LIFE. In twenty-something journalist Daniel Brook's first book, The Trap: Selling Out to Stay Afloat in Winner-Take-All America (new in paper, Holt), he asks what are we losing—as individuals and as a country—when the best and the brightest cannot afford to serve the public good. He presents an indictment of the current economic and political landscape that has dramatically widened the pay chasm between jobs in the corporate sector, and those in public, creative, and nonprofit work. $5 at the door (no advance tickets), with preferred seating for Town Hall members. Town Hall Seattle is located at 1119 Eighth Avenue (entry downstairs on Seneca). For more information, please see www.townhallseattle.org, or call Town Hall at (206) 652-4255 or Elliott Bay at (206) 624-6600.
