Can Diplomacy in Africa be Sexy, Thrilling & Solve Wicked Problems?

Please join us to celebrate the achievement of Todd Moss and Matthew Palmer, two American diplomats that recently authored thrillers inspired by their experiences serving in Africa. Todd Moss, author of The Golden Hour is former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State and current Chief Operating Officer and Senior Fellow of the Center for Global Development. Matthew Palmer, author of The American Mission is a twenty-year veteran of the U.S. Foreign Service, currently serving as Director for Multilateral Affairs in the State Department's Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs. We are delighted and honored that Chet Crocker, Professor of strategic studies at Georgetown University and former Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs has agreed to moderate the discussion. A brief reception will follow the event.
