Actor/director Rob Reiner and comedian/actor Cheech Marin are among the speakers set to take part beginning next month in the seventh season of “Palm Springs Speaks,” an annual series of lectures benefiting the city’s public library.
Reiner is scheduled to speak at the Plaza Theatre event on Dec. 10, with Marin scheduled for Feb. 10. Author and journalist Wade Rouse will be in conversation with author Steven Rowley on Feb. 24 and genetic genealogist CeCe Moore will speak on March 30.
Reiner will discuss his film career, his book “A Fine Line Between Stupid and Clever: The Story of Spinal Tap” and his work as a political activist. Marin will discuss about his career and his memoir, “Cheech is Not My Real Name … But Don’t Call Me Chong,” organizers said.
Previous speakers at the series have included former Vice President Al Gore, Bob Woodward, Deepak Chopra, Jane Fonda and Rick Steves.
The sole benefactor and presenting sponsor of the event is Friends of the Palm Springs Library.
