Daniel Handler, pen name Lemony Snicket, and his spouse, best-selling illustrator Lisa Brown, have announced a $1 million donation to Planned Parenthood.
.@lisabrowndraws & I are giving 1 million dollars to @PPFA. We’ve been very fortunate, and good fortune should be shared with noble causes.

Ms. Brown told BuzzFeed:
My husband and I have supported Planned Parenthood for years, for obvious reasons: It’s a great organization that has provided top-quality health care for countless women and families in our lives. This year, Planned Parenthood has gone through a series of unfortunate events, and it felt right to make our support more public and more dramatic.
