Amy Tan is an award-winning novelist and creative force in television, cinema and (in the fall of 2008), opera. Following the success of The Joy Luck Club, her books have enjoyed translation into dozens of languages and have garnered numerous major awards and accolades. Amy has performed as narrator with the San Francisco Symphony and the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra as well as serving as lead rhythm dominitrix for the Rock Bottom Remainders (which has raised more than a million dollars for literacy programs). An amateur gizmo and gadget freak, she can sometimes be seen scooting around Sausalito on a segway with her husband Lou and their beloved Yorkie, Lilly.

Register for EG 2020.

30 April - 2 May 2020

Our team has been working hard behind the scenes to bring you a superb program for EG2020. However, in light of growing and legitimate concerns regarding the rapid spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19) which have gutted international events of all sizes, we have made the difficult decision to put EG on hiatus until it is once again deemed safe.


We know how much each of you look forward to EG and we were looking forward to seeing old friends, and welcoming many new ones, but we do need to prioritize the health and safety of our attendees, presenters, and partners, especially those traveling from afar.

We will be in touch in due course with future plans.
