Tamara Keith, who grew up in Hanford and worked as a reporter covering the Central Valley for KQED, will be the featured guest for a second virtual version of the President’s Lecture Series this fall at Fresno State.
Keith, NPR White House correspondent and co-host of the NPR Politics Podcast, regularly provides analysis of President Donald J. Trump, Congress and Washington, D.C. politics. She was assigned to cover Hillary Clinton during the 2016 presidential election and covered the last two years of the Obama presidency.
During the virtual event, Keith, who is also a member of the "Politics Monday" team on PBS NewsHour, will share her experiences as a journalist and her observations of politics just one week before the 2020 presidential election in a coversation with host Joe Moore of Valley Public Radio.
The President’s Lecture Series will be held from 6 to 7:20 p.m. Monday, Oct. 26. A moderated question-and-answer session will follow. It is free to join by visiting Zoom at the time of the event.
“With only a week before the election, hearing Ms. Keith provide context and insights from her years of reporting on the inner workings of Washington, D.C. Beltway should prove to be interesting for our guests,” said Fresno State President Joseph I. Castro. “She also brings the perspective of someone who grew up in my hometown of Hanford and later worked as a full-time reporter covering the Central Valley for KQED, San Francisco’s NPR affiliate.”
