My wife and I caught lunch today at CNN Center and were surprised to see a mob of fans congregating around the Waldenbooks. Jenn was hoping it was Jennifer Weiner, but it turned out to be Blair Underwood.

He’s in town promoting his new book, Before I Got Here : The Wondrous Things We Hear When We Listen to the Souls of Our Children. Judging from the length of the line for autographs and photos and the securiy, it may be a bestseller.
