New York Times Best-Selling author Dolly Alderton stopped by UTA’s Los Angeles headquarters to screen the first episode of her acclaimed half-hour series “Everything I Know About Love,” adapted from her 2018 memoir of the same name. The NYT calls the series “ a grand love story” that gives “female friendship the rom-com treatment.” The screening was followed by a Q&A moderated by fellow UTA client Yvonne Orji.
