David Westin and Katie Couric–I wish that I could have gotten a better shot!
This past Wednesday was my last day in New York. While I spent most of the day finalizing everything for the next day’s cross-country move, I gave myself a break in the evening so that I could squeeze in some final, fun activities in the city.
First up was an event hosted by the Hudson Union Society, a group that brings in distinguished speakers from all walks of life (e.g., sports, politics, entertainment). I had received a discounted membership through a long-ago sale on Gilt City, and now I would be going to my first (and only–whoops!) of the organization’s events.
This event was a good one: Katie Couric would be interviewing former head of ABC News David Westin on his new book, Exit Interview. I have to admit, I had no idea who David Westin was when I signed up to attend–for me, the draw was 100% Katie Couric. I have watched her for almost as long as I can remember, and I admire her drive and success in journalism. I had no doubt that seeing her in person would be awesome.
