North Central College and Anderson's Bookshops copresent actor, writer and comedian Denis Leary at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 1, in Wentz Concert Hall at the Fine Arts Center, 171 E. Chicago Ave. Author of the bestseller "Why We Suck," Leary will discuss his new book "Why We Don't Suck" and hold a Q&A session.
