Hotel Valley Ho Scottsdale Hosts First Dine & Discuss
The event will take place on the patio and will feature handwritten note advocate and host Cindy Zimmermann, plus special guest Charles G. Irion, author of Autograph Hell – The Truth About Collecting.

Café ZuZu features seasonal American comfort food, made with fresh, local ingredients. Booth and table seating is available inside, as well as shaded dining on the patio. There's also a community table, pie case, and soda fountain, and floor-to-ceiling glass can be opened to let the outside in.

Guests will be served a glass of wine and three courses selected just for the evening – Autumn Pear Salad, Butter-Basted Beef Tenderloin, and ZuZu's Carrot Cake – with everything explained by the chef. During the meal, Cindy and Charles will visit each table for a lively discussion and two-way conversation about personal experiences.

Cindy Zimmermann, founder of Writing In Style, is passionate about ensuring that handwritten communication remains a vital part of our culture and history. An entertaining speaker, Cindy has a meaningful message on effective corporate and personal communications.

Charles G. Irion is an entrepreneur, author, philanthropist, and adventurer. His book Autograph Hell follows him as he starts at the very beginning of autograph collecting to find a world filled with falsified documents and counterfeit signatures – most of which are "authenticated" by the autograph experts who control this multi-million dollar business. Both enlightening and disturbing, this non-fiction book exposes the rampant fiction in the world of autograph collecting. Autograph Hell will be available for purchase at the event.

The cost is $50 per person (does not include tax or gratuity). Reservations for the event are required, and can be made by calling 480.421.7734, or emailing Kristin Heggli at kheggli@hotelvalleyho.com
