WASHINGTON—Actor Alec Baldwin and film directors Wolfgang Peterson (“The Perfect Storm,” “Troy”) and Morgan Spurlock (“Super Size Me”) will help the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) toast its 20th anniversary at a black-tie benefit on Saturday, April 16, at the Organization of American States headquarters, 17th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C.

Gala-goers can also sign up for a host of free same-day activities, including cooking and nutrition demonstrations and a hands-on seminar featuring the latest in alternative medical training and research technologies.
