Levy Lecture Series: Harry S Truman: Common Man, Uncommon Leader

  • Date: 07/27/2021 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM  

Join the Levy Senior Center Foundation on Tuesday, July 27 for a virtual "Harry S Truman: Common Man, Uncommon Leader" lecture as a part of the Levy Lecture Series.

This program tells the remarkable story of the last president to lack a college degree, a former farmer who failed in the haberdashery business, yet emerged during one of the most critical hours in world history to become one of America's greatest and most influential presidents. We will explore Truman's upbringing and the events in his life that helped forge his character and resolve and examine his leadership style and decision-making. The lecture offers an intimate and insider look at Truman and is based on extensive interviews with former advisors to Truman and years of research in the Truman archives.

Presented via Zoom. Register.
