LECTURE AND RECEPTION FOR GW ALUMNI IN LONDON
You are cordially invited to join the GW Alumni Chapter in London for a lecture and reception with Professor Lee Huebner on American Politics and the Changing Media Environment. As technology transforms the nature of media in the 21st century, it is also transforming the nature of politics. One result has been this year's extraordinary U.S. presidential campaign. Professor Huebner will lecture on this exciting topic.

Thursday, March 27
7 – 9 p.m.
Location: TBD

Prior to joining the School of Media and Public Affairs as director, Lee Huebner was a professor of communication studies and journalism at both the School of Communications and the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University. He served for 14 years as publisher and CEO of the Paris-based International Herald Tribune, the world’s first global newspaper. He also worked as a special assistant to the President of the United States and deputy director of the White House writing and research staff during the Nixon administration.

Huebner has published in a variety of fields and is currently completing a book on globalization and the media. A native of Sheboygan, Wis., Huebner was an undergraduate at Northwestern University and received his MA and PhD degrees in history from Harvard University.
