For more than forty years, Katie Couric has been an iconic presence in the media world. Inspired by her journalist father to pursue the career he loved, she overcame every obstacle in her way: insecurity, an eating disorder, being typecast, sexism and the devasting loss of her husband, Jay to colon cancer when he was just 42, leaving her a widow and single mom to two daughters, 6 and 2. Join her in conversation with prize winning New York Times investigative reporter and bestselling author Jodi Kantor as she discusses her memoir Going There and candidly talks about adjusting to sudden fame after her astonishing rise to co-anchor of the TODAY show, details of her historic move to the anchor chair at the CBS Evening News—a world rife with sexism and misogyny. And in the wake of the MeToo movement, Couric shares her clear-eyed reckoning with gender inequality and predatory behavior in the workplace, and downfall of Matt Lauer—a colleague she had trusted and respected for more than a decade. If you thought you knew Katie Couric, think again. Hers is an emotionally riveting story of a thoroughly modern woman, whose journey took her from humble origins to superstardom.
