\"EleanorLEXINGTON, Ky.\u2014Author and political commentator Eleanor Clift will be a guest at Transylvania University during the week of January 27, visiting classes and holding discussions with students.\n<\/p>\n

\nOn Tuesday, Jan. 28, at 7:30 p.m., she will present a public lecture titled \u201cEverybody Loves to Hate Washington: Are They Right?\u201d in the Campus Center. A book signing will follow. The event is free, and free parking is available in Transylvania lots along Fourth Street.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe public and media also are welcome to join Clift immediately following her book signing for a viewing and discussion of President Obama\u2019s State of the Union address, also in the Campus Center. President Obama is scheduled to address Congress and the nation at 9 p.m.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cEleanor Clift is a remarkable woman with an in-depth knowledge of national and international politics and an impressive personal history in the media,\u201d said Transylvania psychology professor and event organizer Meg Upchurch. \u201cWe are delighted that she agreed to be this year\u2019s Woodrow Wilson Visiting Fellow. Her weeklong residency on campus will give members of the Transylvania community several opportunities to conduct in-depth discussions with her. We also look forward to people from Lexington and the surrounding area joining us for her public events.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nThe Hunter College graduate began her career as a secretary to Newsweek\u2019s national affairs editor in New York. She was one of the first women at the magazine to move from secretary to reporter.\n<\/p>\n

\nDuring her career, Clift has covered every presidential campaign since 1976 and served both as Newsweek’s White House correspondent and its congressional and political correspondent. She was a key member of Newsweek\u2019s 1992 election team, following Bill Clinton\u2019s campaign from the start to inauguration day. In June 1992 she was named deputy Washington bureau chief and in 1994 became a contributing editor for Newsweek.\n<\/p>\n

\nClift and her late husband, Tom Brazaitis, who was a columnist for the Cleveland Plain Dealer, wrote two books together, “War Without Bloodshed: The Art of Politics” and “Madam President: Shattering the Last Glass Ceiling.” Clift’s book “Founding Sisters” is about the passage of the 19th amendment giving women the vote. In “Two Weeks of Life: A Memoir of Love, Death and Politics,” she recounts the loss of her husband and examines how we deal with death in America. Her most recent book, \u201cHow to Select a President,\u201d was co-authored with Matthew Spieler and written as a civics lesson for high school and college students.\n<\/p>\n

\nClift is a regular panelist on the syndicated talk show \u201cThe McLaughlin Group.\u201d She has appeared as herself in several movies, including \u201cDave,\u201d \u201cIndependence Day,\u201d \u201cMurder at 1600,\u201d \u201cRising Sun\u201d and the CBS series \u201cMurphy Brown.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nClift now contributes to the digital edition of Newsweek and its sister website, the Daily Beast. She writes on the Washington power structure, the influence of women in politics and other issues of policy and personality.\n<\/p>\n

\nShe is currently assigned to cover the White House and is particularly interested in how Obama and the Republicans are approaching the 2014 midterm elections, with the balance of power at stake in both the Senate and House.\n<\/p>\n

\nFor more information about her Lexington appearance, contact Tom Martin in Transylvania\u2019s communications office at 859-494-3469 or tmartin@transy.edu<\/a>. The Campus Center<\/a> is located on the southwest corner of North Broadway and West Fourth Street.
