In Conversation: Tess Sanchez & Max Greenfield

Author Tess Shanchez takes the stage to present her collection of essays, “We’ve Decided to Go in a Different Direction.” She’ll be joined in conversation by her husband, actor Max Greenfield, who wrote the book’s foreword.

Tess Shanchez lived a life that felt like a hit sitcom—until an unexpected career loss changed everything.

In “We’ve Decided to Go in a Different Direction,” she examines the aftermath of a major shift that forever changed the course of her life, and how losing her Hollywood career led to a journey of resilience, reinvention, and rediscovering her identity.

“We’ve decided to go in a different direction” was a phrase Sanchez rattled off to countless agents, actors, producers, and many more. But in the fall of 2020, the tables turned and she was on the receiving end of that phrase when she lost the long-held job she adored.

She quickly discovered how much that career defined her identity, from her personal relationships to her perception of herself.
