2012 Downtown Business BreakfastWednesday, April 11, 7 a.m.The Westin Seattle
David Brooks is one of America's most prominent cultural and political commentators. Brooks writes a bi-weekly op-ed column for The New York Times and is a regular analyst on “NewsHour With Jim Lehrer” and National Public Radio’s “All Things Considered.”
A keen observer of the American way of life and a savvy analyst of present-day politics and foreign affairs, Brooks has a gift for bringing audiences face to face with the spirit of our times — with humor, insight, and quiet passion. Following the breakfast there will be a Q&A session with Brooks.
Brooks is the author of two books he terms “comic sociology” that are as witty and entertaining as they are revealing and insightful — On Paradise Drive: How We Live Now (And Always Have) in the Future Tense and New York Times best-seller Bobos in Paradise: The New Upper Class and How They Got There. His newest book is The Social Animal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character, and Achievement (Random House, 2011).
