Fannie Flagg for Christmas - Adriana Trigiani's You Are W...

What this episode covers

Actor, writer and dramatist Fannie Flagg is the triple threat of show business. From the stage to the page, Fannie has graced us with some of our favorite stories: Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe, Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man, and more. Flagg's script for the movie Fried Green Tomatoes was nominated for an Academy Award and the Writers Guild of America Award, and won the highly regarded Scripter Award for best screenplay of the year. But the award Fannie treasures above all others came in 2012 when she traveled to Monroeville, Alabama, to receive the Harper Lee Prize for fiction from her longtime friend and mentor, Harper Lee. Fannie closes our 2023 You Are What You Read episodes on a high note as she takes us through her sparkling career from Birmingham, Alabama to Hollywood, California and everywhere else in between.
