We eagerly await sharing all of this with the great North Fork community."
Chris Noth is scheduled to accept the award on Friday, September 8 at the Greenport Theatre. "I'm so honored to be presented with the Canopy Award at this year's North Fork TV Festival," said Chris Noth. "I've lived and worked in New York for years, and I’ve shot all over New York State and Long Island, so being a part of this particular festival really means a lot to me. I can’t wait to see everyone out east this September."
On Saturday night September 9, the festival will have "A Conversation with Julie Klausner", creator, writer and star of DIFFICULT PEOPLE. The show produced by Amy Poehler for HULU stars Klausner and Billy Eichner as haters of everything in the world, but each other. Season three will release August 8, 2017.
