Lunch with the Author:
Max Sherman
Please join author Max Sherman as he reviews Barbara Jordan: Speaking the
Truth with Eloquent Thunder, a volume of several major political speeches
that articulate Barbara Jordan's most deeply held values. Revered by
Americans across the political spectrum, Barbara Jordan was "the most
outspoken moral voice of the American political system," in the words of
former President Bill Clinton, who awarded her the Presidential Medal of
Freedom in 1994. Throughout her career as a Texas senator, U.S.
congresswoman, and distinguished professor at the Lyndon B. Johnson School
of Public Affairs, Barbara Jordan lived by a simple creed: "Ethical behavior
means being honest, telling the truth, and doing what you said you were
going to do." Her strong stand for ethics in government, civil liberties,
and democratic values still provides a standard around which the nation can
unite in the twenty-first century. If you'd like, bring your copy of the
book for Max to autograph.
Monday October 8
Noon - 1 p.m.
$20 (Includes lunch.)
Pre-registration required.
Max Sherman is Professor Emeritus and former Dean of the Lyndon B. Johnson
School of Public Affairs at the University of Texas. He was Barbara Jordan's
friend and colleague for twenty-five years, first in the Texas Senate and
later at the LBJ School.
To register call Seton Cove at 451-0272.
