Cut-off to reserve a room at the conference hotel, The Walker Greenwich Village, is Sept. 1. After that, all unsold rooms in the conference block will be released to sell to the general public.<\/p>\n<p>The jointly sponsored conference is a first for both societies, and conference directors Aimee Pozorski and Adam Sexton have done a marvelous job of putting together a program. The conference features keynotes by Adam Gopnik, who knew both men, and novelist Taffy Brodesser-Akner, and two receptions that are included with registration.
