The Columnist - ePublication
THE STORY: From the Tony Award® and Pulitzer Prize-winning author of
Proof, a drama about the press and power, sex and betrayal. At the height of the Cold War, Joe Alsop is the nation's most influential journalist, beloved, feared and courted by the Washington world. But as the '60s dawn and America undergoes dizzying change, the intense political dramas Joe is embroiled in become deeply personal as well.
