Jon Meacham, His Truth Is Marching On: John Lewis and the Power of Hope

Jon Meacham will be talking about his new biography about John Lewis. Meacham calls Lewis “as important to the founding of a modern and multiethnic twentieth- and twenty-first-century America as Thomas Jefferson and James Madison and Samuel Adams were to the initial creation of the Republic itself in the eighteenth century.” Jon Meacham is a Pulitzer Prize–winning biographer. The author of the New York Times bestsellers Thomas Jefferson: The Art of Power, American Lion: Andrew Jackson in the White House, Franklin and WinstonDestiny and Power: The American Odyssey of George Herbert Walker Bush, and The Soul of America. He is a contributing writer to The New York Times Book Review, a contributing editor to Time, and a fellow of the Society of American Historians.
