Spring Lecture Series: Madeleine Albright

Former United States Secretary of State Madeleine Albright closes the 2018 Spring Leadership Lecture Series at Dominican University of California on Saturday, April 28, at 8 p.m.

The series is presented by Dominican in partnership with Book Passage.

All lectures will be held in Dominican’s Angelico Concert Hall. Doors open one hour prior to the programs. Free parking is available in the Conlan Center parking lot at the intersection of Acacia and Grand avenues.

Albright returns to Dominican for the first time since 2013. Her new book, “Fascism: A Warning,” draws on the former Secretary of State’s experiences as a child growing up in Czechoslovakia under the Nazi and Communist regimes and how it presents a more virulent threat to peace and justice today since the Berlin Wall fell.

Individual event tickets are $40 and include an autographed copy of “Fascism: A Warning.” Tickets can be purchased by calling (415) 927-0960 ext. 1 or visiting bookpassage.com/dominican. Or follow this link:http://bit.ly/2qMUh7y

The speaker series, a cooperative effort between Dominican’s Institute for Leadership Studies and Book Passage, features some of the country’s leading figures from the worlds of business, politics, entertainment, academia, and literature. The series has entertained and educated thousands of Marin County and San Francisco Bay Area residents for the past 14 years.

The Institute for Leadership Studies’ Spring 2018 Leadership Lecture Series is sponsored by Private Ocean, the oldest and largest privately-held wealth management firm in Marin County. Private Ocean’s commitment to community service has been a driving force behind its support of the lecture series.
