Jeffrey Toobin

In conversation with Christopher Edley, Jr.

Wednesday, October 3, 2007  |  Herbst Theatre, 8pm

Jeffrey Toobin's journalistic territory includes politics, media, and the law. As legal analyst for CNN, Toobin distills the underlying issues behind some of the nation's most provocative cases, from the O.J. Simpson trial to the 2000 presidential election's disputed Florida recount. He deftly reveals the complex motivation and interactions of historic figures while maintaining a deep respect for American institutions. Toobin is a longtime staff writer at The New Yorker and the author of many books, including Opening Arguments, Too Close to Call, and A Vast Conspiracy. His most recent book is The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court. Based on exclusive interviews with the justices themselves, The Nine deconstructs the complex dynamics among the people who make up the nation's highest judicial branch. He recently appeared onstage with Justice Stephen Breyer for City Arts & Lectures.
