Join author and Port Washington resident Daniel Paisner as he discusses his new novel Balloon Dog, published in June 2022.  Balloon Dog tells the story of an art heist gone wrong, and a series of midlife crises gone sideways.  It’s “darkly funny and painfully true,” according to best-selling novelist Laura Zigman, and it seems to have something to say about art and what it means to matter.  Balloon Dog is Mr. Paisner’s fourth novel, but he is perhaps best known for his work as a best-selling ghostwriter.  He has collaborated with such celebrities as Whoopi Goldberg, Serena Williams, John Kasich, Denzel Washington and Ron Darling, as well as longtime Port Washington resident Krystyna Chiger, co-author of the haunting (and, ultimately, hopeful) Holocaust memoir The Girl in the Green Sweater.  He is also the host of the popular podcast As Told To, which features conversations with his fellow ghostwriters.  In addition to discussing his new book, Mr. Paisner will share insights and anecdotes from his work as a collaborator.  (Sponsored by the Friends of the Library)
