The Courier was in attendance at a Writer’s Bloc event on Oct. 17 in which Congressman Adam Schiff sat with actor and activist Jaime Lee Curtis to discuss his new memoir, “Midnight in Washington” and answer audience questions. The representative, whose district stretches from part of West Hollywood to Pasadena, played a pivotal role in the opposition to President Donald Trump, leading the prosecution in Trump’s first impeachment trial. The book recounts Schiff’s experiences in Washington during the Trump era and expounds on his own path to the capital. Despite his accomplishments, Schiff admitted to feeling starstruck by his interviewer. “I’m just trying to get over the fact that I’m sitting on a stage with Jamie Lee Curtis,” he said.
