Max Greenfield in Conversation with Adam Rubin: Good Night Thoughts

Sep 03, 2024

Join acclaimed actor and bestselling author of I Don’t Want to Read This Book Aloud Max Greenfield (New Girl, Unfrosted) for a conversation about his career onscreen, overcoming anxiety, and his new picture book, Good Night Thoughts.

Between indelible roles like Schmidt in New Girl and Dave Johnson in The Neighborhood, Max Greenfield has learned a thing or two about quieting his racing thoughts to be present in the moment. That’s the inspiration for his sweetly funny bedtime story — a simple but complex message about acknowledging anxiety without succumbing to it. Hear about his remarkable career onscreen, why he wanted to make a bedtime story for kids and parents alike, what’s next in his career, and more.
