The last time she was in Madison, Sarah Vowell said she used her 10 free minutes to get someone to drive her to the Frank Lloyd Wright Unitarian Meeting House.
It was closed but there were two older women outside working on a project, the author said.Vowell tells the story of bolting past them, yelling “Architectural enthusiast passing through town!” She then looked around the sanctuary for a few seconds and sprinted back out.
“Today, I broke into a frat house,” Vowell, 37, told a nearly full audience of UW-Madison students and others during her Distinguished Lecture Series talk at the Union Theater Wednesday night.
