the monthly literary luncheon known as Round Table West, took root in 1977 at a ballroom in the Ambassador Hotel and grew into the largest such gathering in the nation.Public relations executive Marylin Hudson was one of its co-founders and one of its draws. For decades, she warmed up the crowd of hundreds with a satirical horoscope reading that started when she filled in for an astrologer. Her routine was scathingly funny, said authors who followed her at the podium.
