VERO BEACH — Individual speaker tickets are currently on sale at The Emerson Center for the 2013 Celebrated Speakers Series sponsored by Wilmington Trust.
The tickets are for the two remaining engaging and informative speakers in the series presented at The Emerson Center at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Vero Beach.
Individual tickets are $65 each. Performances are held at 4 and 7 p.m., with the latter time offering more available seating.
Appearing on Saturday, Feb. 23, is Mary Matalin, one of the most celebrated and popular conservative voices in America, a former presidential advisor and contributor to CNN.
She is a best-selling author, television and radio host, and widely sought-after political contributor, pundit, and public speaker noted for her straightforward manner and insightful political repartee. She served under President Reagan, made her mark as George H.W. Bush’s campaign director, and most recently was an assistant to President George W. Bush.
Since then, Matalin has cohosted the political talk show Equal Time on CNBC, made numerous appearances on NBC’s Meet the Press, hosted CNN’s debate show Crossfire, and been named one of “The Most Important Talk Show Hosts in America” by Talkers magazine for her CBS Talk Radio show The Mary Matalin Show.
Today, she cohosts the nationally syndicated radio program Both Sides Now with Arianna Huffington. Matalin also cowrote the best-selling political campaign book All’s Fair: Love, War, and Running for President with her husband, James Carville.
Matalin’s pull-no-punches discussion is informed by a career spent in the trenches as a political strategist and a trusted advisor to America’s most powerful conservative leaders.
Concluding the series on March 16 is James A. Baker, III, who served in senior government positions from 1975 to 1992 under three U.S. presidents: Ford, Reagan, and George H.W. Bush.
