Join novelist and former Washington Post columnist, Bob Levey, for an examination of the Washington Post in its heyday and thoughts about the current state of the media. Registration recommended.

Bob Levey is a former columnist for the Washington Post and the author of the novel Larry Felder, Candidate. Learn about Bob Levey's experiences as the first reporter hired by Ben Bradlee; hear what it was like to sit between Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein during Watergate and be on first-name basis with Katharine Graham; and discuss some thoughts on the current state of the media.

Bob Levey's novel follows the story of a famous Washington newspaper columnist who abandons journalism to run for Congress in Montgomery County. The main character of this novel is based on “all the superb political reporters” alongside whom he worked with for decades at The Post. Larry’s path gets massively complicated by love, corruption, the unexpected and those horrible beasts known as newspaper reporters.  For more information on Bob Levey, visit www.bobleveypublishing.com/bio
