Kevin Wade

Don’t miss this opportunity to meet playwright, screenwriter, and television writer and producer, Kevin Wade

Kevin Wade will join us to discuss Johnny Careless, his razor-sharp debut novel that Carl Hiassen says, “combines grit and wit in a way that conjures Donald Westlake or Robert Parker in full stride.” Wade’s credits include the stage plays Key Exchange, Mr. & Mrs., and Cruise Control, and the screenplays for Working Girl (seven Academy Award nominations), True Colors, Mr. Baseball, Junior, Meet Joe Black, and Maid in Manhattan. For television, he created the ABC television drama Cashmere Mafia and in 2010 joined the rookie CBS drama Blue Bloods as a writer. Starting with the second season and for the rest of the show’s fourteen year-run, Wade served as its showrunner, executive producer, and back-seat driver. Wade will discuss his novel, take questions and sign copies that will be on hand by On the Road Book Events.
