The titular columnist is one Joseph Alsop, a fascinating true-life journalist, power broker, conservative, J.F.K. advisor, homosexual and target of KGB smear tactics. The Columnist sees Alsop at the height of his influence, hosting his Kennedy coterie while trying to tamp down his personal secrets. The Columnist is the latest work from David Auburn, who won both a Pulitzer and a Tony for his 2001 play, Proof. For more information, visit thecolumnistbroadway.com.
