NEW YORK, NY– August 27, 2019 –Apple’s highly anticipated series “Dickinson” will be the centerpiece of Tribeca TV Festival on Saturday, September 14. “Dickinson” will make its festival premiere followed by an all-star panel discussion with Academy Award® nominated star and executive producer Hailee Steinfeld (Bumblebee, True Grit), star Jane Krakowski (“30 Rock,” "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”) and series creator, showrunner and executive producer Alena Smith (“The Affair,” “The Newsroom”).
