Before traveling to the Midwest, New Yorker Fran Lebowitz talked with Spectrum’s guest host Emily Votaw and share her views on life, mortality, friends and smartphones.

Lebowitz is a writer, humorist and intellectual. A child of the 1950’s, she shares her social criticism with wit, wisdom and a dose of sarcasm.

In 1978, her first book of essays “Metropolitan Life” was published followed by another book of essays in 1981 called “Social Studies.”

Since then, she has been a frequent talk show guest and public speaker due to her engaging banter and her sometimes skewed slant on the world and pop culture.

Lebowitz spoke with Votaw recently before a speaking engagement in Marietta, Ohio.
