Kelly Bishop In Conversation with Dana Bash

The Third Gilmore Girl is the New York Times bestselling memoir from award-winning actress Kelly Bishop, spanning her six decades in show business from Broadway to Hollywood. Her storied career has been defined by winning a Tony Award for originating the role of Sheila Bryant in the original Broadway cast of A Chorus Line, her memorable performance as Marjorie Houseman, Jennifer Grey’s mother in Dirty Dancing, and her iconic role as matriarch Emily Gilmore in “Gilmore Girls,” which cemented her legacy.  

In The Third Gilmore Girl, Bishop shares stories and life lessons learned on her journey. From her early transition from dance to drama, to marrying young to a compulsive gambler, to losses and achievements—among them losing her second husband to cancer and marching for women’s rights. With warmth and candor, she reflects on her remarkable life and looks towards the future. Bishop’s onscreen credits include “Six Degrees of Separation,” “Law & Order: SVU,” “The Good Wife,” “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” and others.

Bishop will be in conversation with Dana Bash, CNN’s chief political correspondent, anchor of “Inside Politics with Dana Bash,” and co-anchor of “State of the Union.” Bash is the author of the recent New York Times bestseller, America’s Deadliest Election.
