EXTRA: You are credited with creating the author tour in 1970 as a publicist who took cook and author Julia Child around to different store locations promoting her book. Can you explain the experience for our readers?
FRIEDMAN: I actually am credited with inventing the author tour, and it’s not exactly true. Before I created this with Julia Childs, there had been … a woman named Jacqueline Susann, who wrote a book named “The Valley of the Dolls,” and she put her books into the trunk of her car and traveled the country meeting people and selling books.
