In 2006, Laura Albert was exposed as the true author of the bestseller Sarah, a purported autobiographical novel by an abused, homeless 12-year-old boy named JT LeRoy. What prompted a young woman named Savannah Knoop to don a disguise and pretend to be the non-existent LeRoy at public functions? At the launch of Girl Boy Girl: How I Become JT LeRoy (Seven Stories/PGC) Knoop will discuss her role in a media hoax that made international headlines.
