McFadden and Matthews: ‘Great Read’ers

By Alissa Krinsky 

Both Cynthia McFadden and Chris Matthews will be appearing at the third annual New York Times Great Read in Manhattan next Sunday.

At one event, the Great Children’s Read, McFadden, along with actress Mariska Hargitay, NYPD Commissioner Raymond Kelly, and others, will read to children. McFadden will read from the book Abiyoyo, by Pete Seeger.

Matthews will join fellow authors (such as Alan Alda and Amy Bloom) at the Great Read’s other marquee event, the Great Literary Brunch. Sorry, folks, the $130 Brunch tickets are sold out.
