Bill Murray Oscar-nominated for "Lost in Translation"

The organizer promises "an exciting exchange between great music and great literature with two masters of their respective fields." Murray made a name for himself as a comedian on the show "Saturday Night Live" in the late 1970s before succeeding as a film actor. His most famous films include "Ghostbusters," "Groundhog Day," and "Scrooged." He has a close relationship with director Wes Anderson, with whom he has made several films since 1998. For his performance as an aging movie star in Sofia Coppola's "Lost in Translation," he was nominated for an Oscar.
