“I sent Johnny Carson a message: I promise that I’ll die in your house.”
In a 2006 appearance at 92Y, Gore Vidal shares the story of his reaction to Truman Capote’s death in the house of Joanne Carson, ex-wife of the late-night TV host. Vidal says it was a story Carson always wanted to tell on air but never dared.
This 8 minute clip also includes a reading from his memoir, Point to Point Navigation.
