NPR commentator Melissa Block to speak on campus

 

SARASOTA, FL, (October 7, 2005) – WUSF and USF Sarasota-Manatee join in bringing Melissa Block to campus on November 1 at 7 p.m. at the College Hall Music Room.


Melissa Block became a host of All Things Considered, NPR's award-winning daily evening newsmagazine in February 2003.


Block has covered many high-profile news events for NPR; from police-brutality and terrorism trials in New York, to the aftermath of the 2000 presidential election, to the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the World Trade Center. Her September 11 reporting was part of coverage that earned NPR News a George Foster Peabody Award.
