 June 7 event will celebrate
life of Malcolm Boyd,
'Disturber of the Peace' T he diocesan community is invited to "Disturber of the Peace: A Celebration of Malcolm Boyd" on Sunday, June 7, 2 - 4 p.m. at the City of West Hollywood Library Auditorium. The Rev. Canon Malcolm Boyd, who died Feb. 27 at the age of 91, had a profound and lasting impact on American culture. From his early days as a Hollywood Producer (partners with the legendary Mary Pickford), to becoming the '60s radical "coffeehouse priest" and best-selling author of Are You Running With Me, Jesus? and 29 other books, Boyd's story weaves through the volatile beginnings of the Freedom Movement, the contentious eruptions against the Vietnam War, and current struggle for social, income and marriage equality. The June 7 event -
held on the eve of what would have been his 92nd birthday - will be an afternoon of celebration, surprise guests, music, humor and intimate recollections from Boyd's family and friends. Also featured at this event will be a special sneak preview of major scenes from the upcoming documentary "Disturber Of The Peace," on which Boyd and author/activist Mark Thompson, his partner of more than three decades, have worked for several years. Already a "Festival Favorite" at the Palm Springs Cinema Diverse Film Festival, the film features interviews with Lily Tomlin, Peter Yarrow, Holly Near, Don Bachardy and Tom Hayden, along with an eclectic collection of artists and activists. The event will be hosted by Boyd's husband, Mark Thompson, along with Mary Bruno (wife of Bishop Jon Bruno of the Diocese of Los Angeles).) Information and reservation information is here.
