Tired of being bummed-out by the homeless guys at the end of your favorite off-ramp? Captivated by phrases such as “moral hazard” and “return on investment” as you enter into deeper middle age? Two-time Pulitzer-winning New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof has the answers as he presents A Path Appears: Transforming Lives, Creating Opportunity. In conversation with a yet-to-be-announced actor whom you'll surely recognize, Kristof has traveled the world and reported on issues on every continent except Antarctica and Atlantis, so he knows precisely who in the world is devoted to making life better for everyone. (Nuns? Good. Pro-lifers? Bad.) He'll tell you how to determine which charities are worthy of your money, as well as all about the benefits you'll derive from being generous to the right people. Spoiler alert: Just like that popular OneRepublic song, it really is all about all the right moves in all the right places and all the right boobs in all the right faces. All Saints Church, 504 N. Camden Drive, Beverly Hills; Wed., Oct. 8, 6:30 p.m. reception, 8 p.m. talk; $20 GA, $30 reserved seats, $43 includes book and reserved seats, $95 includes reception, book, and reserved seats.
