Plot Twist Books will host an Evening with Stan Zimmerman at the South Charleston Public Library Wednesday, September 4, at 5:30 p.m. Zimmerman will discuss and sign copies of his new memoir, “The Girls: From Golden to Gilmore.”

“Devour it like a cheesecake!” – Alaska, RuPaul’s Drag Race
“The very definition of a page-turner.” – Colin Mochrie, Whose Line is It Anyway?
“You can never have enough of The Girls!” – Vanessa Marano, Gilmore Girls
“Whether your job is in a creative medium or not, you come away from Stan’s book identifying with the human struggles of doubt and insecurity that arise when trying to balance creativity with a commercial world.” – Paige Davis, TLC’s Trading Spaces

“The Girls: From Golden to Gilmore” is the story a gawky Jewish boy who dreamed of becoming a wildly successful actor, rich enough to build his own mansion in the Hollywood Hills. While the actor part didn't quite pan out, Zimmerman found success as a writer, producer, director, and playwright, working on such shows as The Golden Girls, Roseanne, and Gilmore Girls.

Accompanied by journal entries, The Girls details Zimmernan's relationships with some of entertainment's most notable women, including Roseanne Barr, Lily Tomlin, Sandra Bernhard, Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel, and, of course, all four Golden Girls.

"The Girls: From Golden to Gilmore" is a candid, funny and sometimes poignant testimony about how a young boy turned his dream into reality.

Copies of the book will be available for purchase at the event and at Plot Twist Books in South Charleston. The book retails for $17.95.

The event is hosted by Plot Twist Books, the South Charleston Public Library and Rainbow Pride of West Virginia. "The Girls: From Golden to Gilmore" is the fall pick of Rainbow Pride of West Virginia’s One Book, One Pride Book Club.

South Charleston Public Library is located at 312 4th Ave, South Charleston.
