Emmy-award winning actor Bradley Whitford, who plays Josh Lyman on "The West Wing," will be back in his hometown next month to help raise money for Madison's schools.

Whitford, who graduated from Madison East High School, is scheduled to speak at the Foundation for Madison's Public Schools annual luncheon, set for noon May 17 at the Exhibition Hall of the Alliant Energy Center.

Tickets are $40 per person, or $300 for a table of eight, and are available by calling the foundation at 232-7820.

The foundation is not paying Whitford a speaking fee. Whitford, who was actively involved in theater during his time at East High, will be here to speak at University of Wisconsin graduation ceremonies on May 15-16 and agreed to stay for the foundation's luncheon.

The Foundation for Madison's Public Schools is in its fourth year and has so far raised about $2 million to support activities outside the district's regular operating budget.
