(SOUTH ORANGE, NJ) -- On May 23 at 7:30pm, the South Orange Performing Arts Center presents political commentator David Frum as part of its Independent Voices series. He will speak about Real Problems, Real Solutions: Transformative Ideas for Todays Political Landscape, followed by questions from the audience. An editor for The Atlantic, and a frequent guest on CNN, MSNBC and BBC, David Frum is a well-respected journalist and author.
Frum has served as chairman of the British think tank, Policy Exchange, as a board member of the Republican Jewish Coalition, and as a senior policy adviser to the Rudy Giuliani for president campaign. In 2001-2002, he served as speechwriter and special assistant to President George W. Bush.
Frum’s first book, Dead Right, was described by Frank Rich of The New York Times as “the smartest book written from the inside about the American conservative movement” and by the late William F. Buckley as “the most refreshing ideological experience in a generation.” His memoir of the Bush administration, The Right Man, was a #1 New York Times bestseller.
The Independent Voices Series is proudly sponsored by The Blanche and Irving Laurie Foundation.
