Girl Walks Out of a Bar author Lisa Smith will be at YWCA Greenwich (259 E. Putnam Ave) on March 29 at 10:00 am.
Author Lisa Smith was a bright young lawyer at a prestigious law firm in NYC when alcoholism and drug addiction took over her life. What was once a way she escaped her insecurity and negativity as a teenager became a means of coping with anxiety and stress of an impossible workload.
Her book, Girl Walks Out of a Bar, a darkly comic and wrenchingly honest story explores her formative years, decade of alcohol and drug abuse and her road to recovery. Sober for ten years, Lisa Smith is passionate about breaking the stigma of drug and alcohol addiction.
