On May 8, KALW welcomed Emmy Award-winning actor and author Jeff Hiller for an exclusive Members-only edition of Lunchtime Live at our live studio space at 220 Montgomery. Listen to the full conversation above.

Jeff Hiller joined BOUNCE host Erin Lim for an intimate dialogue about his personal journey of being cast in HBO’s Somebody Somewhere, coming out to his friends and family, and learning to own his talent throughout his career. After the conversation, Jeff chatted with KALW Members and signed copies of his book, Actress of a Certain Age.

KALW is giving autographed copies of Actress of a Certain Age for a one-time $50 donation or to monthly Members at $5/month. Become a Member today at kalw.org/donate for your copy.
