An evening conversation with actor Dustin Hoffman, marking the launch of his memoir 'Look at Me'. Hoffman will be in conversation with Ariel Levy, his collaborator on the book, a staff writer at The New Yorker and author of 'The Rules Do Not Apply'. The talk covers his six-decade career of more than 60 films and five Broadway plays, his awards, growing up as the 'family failure', discovering his Jewish ancestry, and his view, nearing age 90, on America's changing zeitgeist.
