Yesterday, May 4, Betty White and Michael Stripe were the featured guests at the TimesTalks series in New York City. White spoke about her career with Frank Bruni, while the R.E.M. frontman was interviewed by Hugo Lindgren. BroadwayWorld was on hand for both events and brings you photo coverage below.

For 13 years, TimesTalks events have been evoking intelligent and entertaining conversations among some of the world's most engaging speakers. TimesTalks was created in 1998 to help enhance relationships with existing readers, who would be able to see and hear from the faces behind the bylines, and to introduce new readers to these talented journalists. TimesTalks brings members of The Times's prize-winning editing, reporting and writing staff together with today's most celebrated talents and thinkers in thought-provoking and entertaining discussions. As wide-ranging and diverse as The Times and its readers throughout the world, TimesTalks has been designed to speak to many interests in a range of categories.
