Samantha Power in Conversation

Samantha Power, Barack Obama’s former Senior Foreign Policy Advisor, examines in her new book, CHASING THE FLAME: SERGIO VIEIRA DE MELLO AND THE FIGHT TO SAVE THE WORLD, the humanitarian work of Vieira de Mello, who as an idealist and fierce pragmatist worked in more war zones than any other person in his generation. She is in conversation with Azar Nafisi, author of READING LOLITA IN TEHRAN: A MEMOIR IN BOOKS. This event was presented by the New York Public Library.
