Details

A Chicago native, Gregory Royal Pratt covered every day of Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s term and was deeply sourced in City Hall, as well as in the other offices of local, state, and national politics that shaped the mayor’s administration. Pratt has won several national awards for his political and investigative reporting and he is a regular commentator about the city on local and national media, including appearances on CNN and NPR. Join us for a discussion about Greg’s reporting and recently published book, The City is Up for Grabs: How Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot Led and Lost a City in Crisis. His book is a comprehensive behind-the-scenes look at the tumultuous single term of Mayor Lightfoot and the chaos that roiled the city and City Hall during her tenure.

Co-sponsored by DePaul University's School of Public Service and Center for Journalism Integrity & Excellence, this event begins at 5:45pm on Wednesday, October 23. Join us in Chaddick Hall (Richard M. & Maggie C. Daley Building - 14 E. Jackson Room 1601) on DePaul's Loop Campus.
