Julia Reed Reception

Posted by ERIC WILSON - Author and editor Julia Reed is visiting Little Rock as the featured speaker for tomorrow’s luncheon benefitting the Arkansas Committee of the National Museum of Women in the Arts. She stopped by the Clinton School this evening to visit with our students about their work in the Delta, an area she knows intimately. Born in Greenville, Mississippi, Reed was a contributing editor at Vogue where her profile subjects included George and Laura Bush, Condoleezza Rice, Hillary Clinton, and both Cindy and Roberta McCain. She is now a contributing editor at Newsweek, where she writes the “food and drink” column. An acclaimed author and regular guest on MSNBC and CNN, Reed is also the chairman of the board of the Ogden Museum of Southern Art in New Orleans and serves on the board of FriendsofNewOrleans.org.
