Monkey Punch attending DC lecture in April

Anime News Network is reporting that Monkey Punch will be a part of a day long series of lectures by members of the anime industry. The topic is "Manga to Anime: From Astro Boy to Spirited Away" and will be hosted at the Freer Gallery of Art (Washington, DC) on April 21.

Damn... I'll be at Anime Boston that day; the universe does like to mock me. Anyone in or near DC that attends should take plenty of notes and write us up a good report.
