Author Talk: Girl Walks Out of a Bar with Lisa Smith
Instead of a cup of coffee, Lisa F. Smith began her day with a bottle of wine and three lines of cocaine. Only then could she head off to work at the high-pressure, international firm where she practiced corporate law. How had it come to this? Smith was born into a middle-class Jewish family, was an excellent student in college and was recruited right out of school. Yet by the time she was 25 she was drinking all day.
Girl Walks Out of a Bar is a witty, honest account of a smart woman who hid her alcohol and cocaine addiction from her co-workers and friends.
Lisa will share her incredible journey through alcoholism and drug addiction. Sober for more than ten years, she is passionate about breaking the stigma of drug and alcohol addiction.
This program is presented in partnership with The Women Philanthropy and Young Adult Divisions of the Jewish Federation of Greater Houston.
