About
The Fellows Program supports scholars and writers whose innovative work influences the public debate about crucial national and global issues. The program offers an intellectual home and communications platform for more than 20 fellows from diverse backgrounds: emerging public intellectuals, journalists, distinguished public figures, and academics whose research can be used to inform the policy world.
Recent and ongoing developments among our fellows include:
- Distinguished Senior Fellow Robert Kuttner travelling the country to speak about his new book A Presidency in Peril, his hard-hitting, incisive account of how the Obama administration not only missed its moment to turn our economy around, but deepened Wall Street's risky grip on America's future.
- Distinguished Senior Fellow Linda Tarr-Whelan traveling the country promoting her new book, Women Lead the Way: Your Guide to Stepping Up To Leadership and Changing the World.
- Senior Fellow Rich Benjamin travelling 27,000 miles across America to experience firsthand disturbing new patterns of segregation for his book Searching for Whitopia--covered by Time, the New Yorker, and many other national media outlets upon release.
