- Brandis Friedman, Claire McCaskill
Join the IOP to welcome U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill as she discusses the setbacks and sexism she faced in her journey to become the first female senator in Missouri history, and the strategizing and steadfastness it took to get her there. In her new book Plenty Ladylike Senator McCaskill shares how she became accepting of her own ambitions for a political career, and how other young people can, too. Book signing to follow. This event is sponsored by the International House Global Voices Program, and co-presented with the Seminary Co-op Bookstore.
