Manhunt: The Ten-Year Search for Bin Laden–from 9/11 to Abbottabad

Wednesday May 9, 6:30 pm; $15 general public, $12 members of the Inner Circle™ **

Tonight, I can report that the United States has conducted an operation that killed Osama bin Laden.–US President Barack Obama, May 1, 2011

When Osama bin Laden declared war against the United States for the first time to a Western audience, Peter Bergen was there. He produced Osama bin Laden’s first television interview. His book, The Osama bin Laden I Know: An Oral History of al Qaeda’s Leader, was named one of the best non-fiction books of 2006. Bergen has continued to write and report extensively on bin Laden and the conflict between the US and al Qaeda for publications ranging from The New York Times to Rolling Stone. He’s produced award-winning documentaries on the subject matter, and in his latest book he has turned his attention to the hunt and termination of the notorious terrorist. Join us for an inside account of Bergen’s professional connection to bin Laden, his perspective on the decade-long hunt to capture or kill him, and his thoughts on the results of Operation Neptune Spear.
