Overview
- On Oct. 8, Plaza appeared on NBC’s Today to discuss Luna and the Witch Throw a Halloween Party, describing the book as an homage to her grandmother Margie.
- She told Savannah Guthrie her grandmother taught that "life is a party" and to "have fun and move forward."
- In August, Plaza spoke on Amy Poehler’s Good Hang podcast, calling grief a daily struggle and likening it to a "giant ocean of awfulness."
- The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner ruled Jeff Baena’s January death a suicide at 47, and later reporting indicated the couple had separated months earlier.
- Following the death, Plaza and the Baena/Stern family issued a joint statement calling it an "unimaginable tragedy" and asking for privacy, as she now selectively discusses her experience while promoting the new book co-written with Dan Murphy.
