Virtual Event

While reporting and analysis of U.S. foreign policy rarely focuses on personal, humanitarian-focused work, the stories of those who advance America’s actions should not be lost in the bureaucracy.  

Join us for a conversation on one of the U.S. State Department’s greatest humanitarians, Bob Gersony, and the stories that emerged from Gersony’s tenure around the globe. Featuring Robert D. Kaplan, author of recently released The Good American and Susan Glasser of the New Yorker.
