Schemel Forum World Affairs Luncheon Seminar - My Russia-What I Saw in the Kremlin

Friday, 09 May, 2025

At the height of the Cold War, Jill Dougherty and her twin sister began studying the Russian language.  It launched her on a journalistic career that would span half a century, reporting on Russia for CNN from the White House, the U.S. State Department and Moscow.  In her new book, "My Russia:  What I Saw in the Kremlin", Dougherty recounts her experiences in Russia, her reporting on Russia's leaders, and her encounters with Vladimir Putin.  Join her as she presents her book and predictions for where Russia is headed.
