Based on the book, &quot;A Nervous Man Shouldn&#x27;t Be Here in the First Place: The Life of Bill Baggs,&quot; by Amy Condon, the film follows a nearly 13-year journey telling Baggs’ story as one of the most visionary and significant newspaper columnists and editors during the mid-20th Century. Guests include Author Amy Condon and Emmy award-winning videographers &amp; editors Patrick and Anne Longstreth. Suggested donation of $40. All proceeds will benefit the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Biscayne Nature Center on Key Biscayne. All attendees must register to participate in this event.
