Few people have shaped television as significantly as Rod Serling. As the famed writer, producer, and narrator of The Twilight Zone, he redefined what television could be and the kinds of stories that connected with audiences, and his work has inspired almost every major TV and film creator working today.
Renowned TV critic and New York Times best-selling author Alan Sepinwall takes a fresh look at Serling’s extraordinary life and work in his new, definitive biography of the legend: Serling: A Journey Into The Twilight Zone with TV’s First Visionary. The book chronicles Serling’s life and his hundreds of scripts for film and television, including The Twilight Zone, Playhouse 90, Night Gallery, and Planet of the Apes.
Sepinwall will join Paley curator Jason Lynch to talk about his new book and reflect on Serling’s extraordinary legacy.
