Casual Conversation December 15: Paula Kurman about Jim Bouton

On Sunday, December 15 at 3 pm Eastern, Paula Kurman, widow of major league baseball pitcher and author Jim Bouton, will join us for a Casual Conversation.  She comes to us courtesy of classmate Chip Elitzer, who writes:  “Paula’s book about their [hers and Jim Bouton’s] life together, ‘The Cool of the Evening,’ has just been published.  In a way, it’s the completion of a trilogy, following Jim’s classic, ‘Ball Four,’ and his recounting of our adventure together in Pittsfield [MA], ‘Foul Ball Part II.’”
