Palm Springs Speaks: Andrea Bernstein

Andrea Bernstein is the Peabody Award–winning cohost of the acclaimed WNYC/ProPublica podcast Trump, Inc., which won the prestigious 2019 Alfred I. duPont–Columbia University award. In addition to broadcast appearances on outlets including PBS NewsHour, CNN, and Fresh Air, her work has appeared in The New Yorker, the New York Times, the Washington Post, New York, the Guardian, and on NPR.

Andrea will do a lecture of her newest book,  AMERICAN OLIGARCHS: The Kushners, the Trumps, and the Marriage of Money and Power. In her book, Andrea tells the story of the Trump and Kushner families like never before. Their journey to the White House is a story of survival and loss, crime and betrayal, that stretches from the Gilded Age, through Nazi-occupied Poland and across the American Century, to our present moment. In building and maintaining their dynastic wealth, these families came to embody the rising nationalism and inequality that has pushed the United States to the brink of oligarchy.
