Dorothy Parker and the Talk of the Town New Yorkers

Join us for a Trolley Tour at Woodlawn Cemetery at 2:00PM

The newest boldface name to join the pantheon of great New Yorkers of Woodlawn Cemetery is the author, poet, and crusader, Dorothy Parker. After an odyssey beginning with her death in 1967, Parker's cremains were interred beside her parents in August 2020. Join Kevin Fitzpatrick, President of the Dorothy Parker Society, for this trolley tour that will visit her gravesite along with notable artists, captains of industry, explorers, performers, and writers. In the spirit of Mrs. Parker, we'll visit those with ties to Broadway, speakeasies, and the arts. Kevin is the author of Dorothy Parker's New York which includes the story of how Dorothy Parker came to lie at rest at Woodlawn. More information can be found here.
