New York Times reporter to discuss Bush presidency at BYU lecture Oct. 25

David E. Sanger, chief Washington correspondent for “The New York Times,” will visit Brigham Young University on Thursday, Oct. 25, to present “Inside the White House: What Happened to the Bush Plan to Change the World?” at 4 p.m. in 250 Spencer W. Kimball Tower.

The lecture is free and members of the university community and the public are welcome to attend. This address was originally announced for Sept. 11.

During his 25-year career with the “Times,” Sanger has reported from New York, Tokyo and Washington, D.C. He has covered a wide variety of issues surrounding foreign policy, globalization, nuclear proliferation, Asian affairs and, for the past five years, the Bush presidency.

Sanger has won many major awards for individual and team achievements in journalism, including the Columbia Journalism School’s DuPont Award, the Weintal Prize for diplomatic reporting and two Pulitzer Prizes. He is also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and the Aspen Strategy Group.

Sanger graduated magna cum laude in government from Harvard College in 1982.

This lecture is sponsored by the New York Times Knowledge Network and will be archived online. For more information on David M. Kennedy Center events, see the calendar at kennedy.byu.edu.
