SUMMARY:Rick Atkinson
DESCRIPTION:In honor of America at 250\, Pulitzer Prize-winning author and historian Rick Atkinson joins Dole Institute Director Audrey Coleman to discuss his career and work process\, the legacy of World War II and the historian’s craft in the 21st century\, and his new book\, The Fate of the Day\, the second of The Revolution Trilogy. \nLimited copies of The Fate of the Day will be available for purchase at the event. Rick Atkinson will also be available to sign copies of books for guests in attendance following the public program.\n  \n     \nThis program is presented in partnership with the Watkins Museum of History and the Lawrence Public Library \n  \nAbout the Dole Lecture\nHeld each spring\, the Dole Lecture commemorates the date on which Senator Bob Dole was critically wounded while serving in Italy during World War II. To honor his courageous recovery and commitment to serve the nation\, the Institute welcomes a guest who embodies the commitments that Senator Dole held throughout his career in public service. \n  \n\n  \nAbout Rick Atkinson\nRick Atkinson has authored eight narrative histories spanning five American wars. His most recent book\, The Fate of the Day: The War for America\, Fort Ticonderoga to Charleston\, 1777-1780\, debuted at #1 on the New York Times nonfiction bestseller list. It joins the earlier bestseller The British Are Coming: The War for America\, Lexington to Princeton\, 1775-1777 as part of his Revolution Trilogy\, which chronicles the events that unfolded during the American Revolutionary War. \nHe previously wrote the Liberation Trilogy\, a narrative history of the Allied campaign to liberate Europe in World War II. The first volume\, An Army at Dawn: The War in North Africa\, 1942-1943\, received the 2003 Pulitzer Prize in history. The second and third volumes in the trilogy\, The Day of Battle: The War in Sicily and Italy\, 1943-1944 and The Guns at Last Light: The War in Western Europe\, 1944-1945\, were both New York Times bestsellers\, with The Guns at Last Light reaching #1. \nAtkinson’s additional works include The Long Gray Line\, a narrative saga on the West Point Military Academy class of 1966; Crusade\, a history of the Persian Gulf War; and In the Company of Soldiers\, which chronicles Atkinson’s time embedded with the 101st Airborne Division\, led by General David H. Petraeus\, during the invasion of Iraq in 2003. \nThroughout his career\, Atkinson has been honored for his work as both a historian and journalist. In addition to receiving the 2003 Pulitzer Prize in history\, he also received the 1982 Pulitzer Prize for national reporting\, and was part of the Washington Post team awarded the 1999 Pulitzer Prize for public service. His other honors include the 1989 George Polk Award for national reporting\, the 1989 John Hancock Award for excellence in business writing\, the 2003 Society for Military History Distinguished Book Award\, the 2007 Gerald R. Ford Award for Distinguished Reporting on National Defense\, the 2015 Peggy V. Helmerich Distinguished Author Award\, and the 2020 George Washington Prize for the year’s best work on the American founding era\, among others. \nAtkinson began his journalism career in 1976 writing for the Morning Sun in Pittsburg\, Kansas. He joined the Kansas City Times in 1977\, and moved to the Washington Post in 1983. During his two decades at the Post\, he served as a reporter\, foreign correspondent\, bureau chief\, assistant managing editor\, and senior editor. His reporting covered Germany and NATO\, conflicts in Somalia and Bosnia\, the 101st Airborne during the invasion of Iraq in 2003\, and roadside bombs in Iraq and Afghanistan in 2007. \nBorn in Munich\, Germany\, Atkinson is the son of a U.S. Army officer and grew up on military posts. He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from East Carolina University\, and a Master of Arts degree in English literature from the University of Chicago. He and his wife\, Dr. Jane Chestnut Atkinson of Lawrence\, Kansas\, live in Washington\, D.C. \n  \n\n  \nAbout Fate of the Day\nIn the second volume of the landmark American Revolution trilogy by the Pulitzer Prize-winning and #1 New York Times bestselling author of The British Are Coming\, George Washington’s army fights on the knife edge between victory and defeat. \nThe first twenty-one months of the American Revolution—which began at Lexington and ended at Princeton—was the story of a ragged group of militiamen and soldiers fighting to forge a new nation. By the winter of 1777\, the exhausted Continental Army could claim only that it had barely escaped annihilation by the world’s most formidable fighting force. \nTwo years into the war\, George III is as determined as ever to bring his rebellious colonies to heel. But the king’s task is now exponentially more complicated: fighting a determined enemy on the other side of the Atlantic has become ruinously expensive\, and spies tell him that the French and Spanish are threatening to join forces with the Americans. \nPrize-winning historian Rick Atkinson provides a riveting narrative covering the middle years of the Revolution. Stationed in Paris\, Benjamin Franklin woos the French; in Pennsylvania\, George Washington pleads with Congress to deliver the money\, men\, and materiel he needs to continue the fight. In New York\, General William Howe\, the commander of the greatest army the British have ever sent overseas\, plans a new campaign against the Americans—even as he is no longer certain that he can win this searing\, bloody war. The months and years that follow bring epic battles at Brandywine\, Saratoga\, Monmouth\, and Charleston\, an infamous winter of misery in Valley Forge\, and yet more appeals for sacrifice by every American committed to the struggle for freedom. \nTimed to coincide with the 250th anniversary of the beginning of the Revolution\, Atkinson’s brilliant account of the lethal conflict between the Americans and the British offers not only deeply researched and spectacularly dramatic history\, but also a fresh perspective on the demands that a democracy makes on each of its citizens.

SUMMARY:Bill Kurtis
DESCRIPTION:“Before it was history\, it was news\,” reflects Kansas-raised journalist\, network news anchor\, producer\, and rancher Bill Kurtis. \nJoin acclaimed journalist Bill Kurtis in conversation with Dole Institute Director Audrey Coleman for a lively discussion of his Kansas roots and the news that shaped the nation over the course of 7 decades in journalism. \n  \n \nSpecial thanks to the Dole Lecture media partner Kansas Public Radio. \n  \n\n  \nAbout Bill Kurtis\nBill Kurtis began his journalism career at WIBW-TV in Topeka\, Kansas. After his 24-hour coverage of a devastating tornado in 1966\, Kurtis was hired by Chicago’s WBBM-TV\, where he was a field reporter and later anchor of The Channel Two News. \nIn 1978\, Kurtis’ investigative unit was one of the first to report on the dangerous effects of the Agent Orange chemical on American forces in Vietnam. While covering the story\, he returned to Vietnam in 1980 to find the children of American servicemen living in the streets of Saigon with their mothers\, who were unable to find work. Kurtis’ reporting became a cover story in the New York Times Magazine and resulted in legislation that allowed these children immediate access to the United States. Additionally\, his reporting launched massive studies into the post-war lives of American servicemen to make exposure to Agent Orange treatable—establishing a new standard of care for veterans that continues to evolve in the modern day. \nIn 1982\, Kurtis joined the CBS Morning News as a co-anchor alongside Diane Sawyer\, later returning to WBBM-TV in 1985 as anchorman through 1996 and from 2010 to 2013 alongside Walter Jacobson. \nAfter a 30-year run with CBS\, he established Kurtis Productions\, which produces non-fiction programs and documentaries. Additionally\, he serves as the Official Judge and Scorekeeper on National Public Radio’s news quiz show\, Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me!\, and has narrated multiple motion pictures\, including the Anchorman films starring Will Ferrell. \nKurtis was born in Florida and raised in Independence\, Kansas\, after his father retired from the U.S. Marine Corps. He graduated from the University of Kansas with a Bachelor of Science degree in Journalism\, and from Washburn University School of Law with a Juris Doctorate. In addition to his work in journalism\, Kurtis is an active conservationist in Kansas. Kurtis has placed land in the Red Buffalo Ranch\, originally 8\,000 acres of prairie in Chautauqua County\, in conservation easements and has sold much of the land to cattlemen and the Delaware Indian Tribe. His daughter\, Mary Kristin Kurtis\, now owns the remainder of the ranch and the Red Buffalo Gift Shop in Sedan\, Kansas. \n  \nAbout the Dole Lecture\nEach spring\, the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics commemorates the date on which Senator Bob Dole was critically wounded while serving in Italy during World War II. To honor Senator Dole’s courageous recovery and commitment to serve the nation\, we welcome a guest to the Institute who embodies the commitments that Senator Dole held throughout his career in public service.

SUMMARY:Bob Woodward
DESCRIPTION:Bob Woodward\, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and associate editor for the Washington Post\, was interviewed by Dole Institute of Politics Director Bill Lacy for the 2011 Dole Lecture.\nBob Woodward is regarded as one of America’s preeminent investigative reporters and non-fiction authors. He has worked for The Washington Post since 1971 as a reporter\, and is currently an associate editor of the Post. While a young reporter for The Washington Post in 1972\, Woodward was teamed up with Carl Bernstein; the two did much\, but not all\, of the original news reporting on the Watergate scandal that led to numerous government investigations and the eventual resignation of President Richard Nixon. Gene Roberts\, former managing editor of The New York Times has called the work of Woodward and Bernstein “maybe the single greatest reporting effort of all time.” \nWoodward has authored or coauthored 16 non-fiction books in the last 36 years. All 16 have been national bestsellers and 12 of them have been #1 national non-fiction bestsellers – more #1 national non-fiction bestsellers than any contemporary author.
