Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi talks about her book at Kepler’s event on August 26

On Monday, August 26, from 7:00 to 8:00 pm, join Kepler”s to listen to Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi in conversation with Laurene Powell Jobs about her new book, The Art of Power.

The event will take place at the California Theatre, 345 South 1st Street, San Jose. Buy tickets online; your ticket comes with a copy of the book.

In The Art of Power, Pelosi describes for the first time what it takes to make history—not only as the first woman to ascend to the most powerful legislative role in our nation, but to pass laws that would save lives and livelihoods, from the emergency rescue of the economy in 2008 to transforming health care. She describes the perseverance, persuasion, and respect for her members that it took to succeed, but also the joy of seeing America change for the better. Among the best-prepared and hardest working Speakers in history, Pelosi worked to find common ground, or stand her ground, with presidents from Bush to Biden. She also shares moving moments with soldiers sent to the front lines, women who inspired her, and human rights activists who fought by her side.
