Woodlawn’s Dorothy Parker and the Newsmakers of New York
DOROTHY PARKER & THE TOAST OF THE TOWN NEW YORKERS TROLLEY TOUR
Sunday, August 21st
3:00 P.M.
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. Woodlawn welcomes you to come on this new walking 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. The tour will be presented by Kevin Fitzpatrick, president of the Dorothy Parker Society.
