Sometimes in life, a synagogue gets lucky. Twice. Sixth & I hosted Joan Rivers in 2012, and we’re beyond excited to welcome her back this summer.

Following up on her New York Times bestseller I Hate Everyone…Starting With Me, the unstoppable comedienne is at it again with Diary of a Mad Diva. When her daughter Melissa gives her a diary, at first Joan is horrified—who the hell does Melissa think she is? Bridget Jones? But as she begins to record her day-to-day musings, she realizes she has a lot to say.

About everything. And everyone. God help them. 

Follow Joan as she delivers blistering critiques on current events, and excoriating insights about life, pop culture, and celebrities, all in her relentlessly funny signature style. Diary of a Mad Diva is a provocative exploration of an age in which Joan has lived on and on and on and on. Rivers will be in conversation with Hanna Rosin, a senior editor at The Atlantic, a founder and editor at DoubleX, and author of The End of Men.
