Actress Debra Winger (whom David worked with before in the film A Dangerous Woman) and Arlo Guthrie also took part in the event. David read a story by actor Alan Arkin, who was unable to appear at the benefit.

David also read work by a poet friend of his. • [on doing stage readings such as the Guthrie Center event] "When you're reading anything, it's a private experience. So now, I'm reading to you and all of you are having a private experience. Now this is sounding like real poetry." -David Strathairn, 2005 Related Links:
