Andrea Seabrook, Congressional Correspondent for NPR, will give a presentation for students, faculty and the public on Wednesday, April 11 from 3 ' 4 p.m. in room 223 of Gregory Hall on the Urbana campus. Get the scoop on Congress and ask questions of a seasoned reporter.
In her reports for NPR, Seabrook delivers critical, insightful reporting, explaining the daily complexities of legislation and the longer trends in American politics. She and NPR's Peter Overby won the prestigious Joan S. Barone award for their 'Dollar Politics' series, which exposed the intense lobbying effort around President Obama's Health Care legislation. Another collaboration with Overby on the flow of money during the 2010 midterm elections, was widely lauded, drawing a huge audience spike on npr.org.
