Brooke Geahan and The Accompanied Literary Society threw a party at The Standard Hotel last night, with guests of honor Gay Talese and George Lois, who just might be the original Don Draper...Lois' book, "Covering The 60s", is an impressive collection of his Esquire covers from the 1960s. The Accompanied Literary Society supports literature through book launches, readings, film screenings, and intimate salons. Past hosts have included Jonathan Ames, Graydon Carter, E.L. Doctrow, Jhumpa Lahiri, and, frustratingly for MA students everywhere, James Franco.
