Arianna Huffington will discuss "The Road to 2008: Presidential Politics Today"

09:29AM / Tuesday, September 09, 2008

WILLIAMSTOWN - Arianna Huffington co-founder and editor-in-chief of The Huffington Post will discuss "The Road to 2008: Presidential Politics Today" on Thursday, Sept. 11. The event is scheduled for 8 p.m. in Chapin Hall on the Williams College campus. The event is open to the public and free. Seating will be on a first come basis.

A nationally syndicated columnist and co-host of Left, Right & Center, public radio's popular political roundtable program, Huffington is also the author of 12 books. Her most recently published book, "Right Is Wrong: How the Lunatic Fringe Hijacked America, Shredded the Constitution, and Made Us All Less Safe," tackles the issues crucial to the 2008 presidential election and overall fate of the country.

Her other books include "Fanatics and Fools: The Game Plan for Winning Back America" (2004), a scathing portrait of our contemporary political landscape and how to restore America to the promise envisioned by our greatest leaders; "Pigs at the Trough: How Corporate Greed and Political Corruption are Undermining America" (2003), a New York Times best seller; and "How to Overthrow the Government" (2000), on the corruption of our political system and the need for reform.

Originally from Greece, she moved to England when she was 16 and graduated from Cambridge University with an M.A. in economics. At 21, she became president of the famed debating society, the Cambridge Union. In 2006, she was named to the Time 100, Time Magazine's list of the world's 100 most influential people.

In May 2005, she launched The Huffington Post, a news and blog site that has quickly become one of the most widely read, linked to, and frequently-cited media brands on the Internet.

She has made guest appearances on numerous television shows, including Charlie Rose, Oprah, Nightline, Larry King Live, and Hardball.
