Larry Flynt visits NCC
Hustler publisher Larry Flynt visited the National Constitution Center for the first time yesterday, though he has been honored with a plaque there commemorating his work in furthering First Amendment causes. Flynt appears on the American National Tree, which features 100 Americans - some famous, some largely unknown - whose actions advanced and protect the Constitution.
Flynt was in town for a Free Library reading of his book One Nation Under Sex: How the Private Lives of Presidents, First Ladies and Their Lovers Changed the Course of American History.
