Natalie Portman's Father Writes Pregnancy Thriller

Ripped from the conversations at his own dinner table! Long Island fertility specialist Dr. Avner Hershlag -- the man better know Natalie Portman's father -- is shopping his debut novel Misconception to publishing houses. A "reproductive thriller" about cloning and embryos, don't be surprised when Darren Aronofsky and Natalie Portman team up again in five years to adapt Misconception, and take another swing at the whole Rosemary's Baby thing they did in Black Swan.
