National Press Club Headliners: Joan Lunden

Journalist and former Good Morning America host Joan Lunden will discuss her memoir, “Joan: Life Beyond the Script,” at a Headliners Book Event on Thursday, March 19 at 6 p.m.

This memoir is described as pulling back the curtain on the defining moments that shaped her life, from breaking barriers on national television to reshaping motherhood, survivorship, and aging.

Lunden has reported from around the world, interviewed presidents and global leaders, and brought national attention to critical issues in health, family, and women’s empowerment. She was co-host of Good Morning America 1980-1997. As a health and senior advocate, Lunden has testified before the Food and Drug Administration for mandatory mammogram reporting and before the Congressional House Ways and Means Committee in support of expanding the Family and Medical Leave Act.

The event will include a discussion with the author and a book signing. Ticket prices are $5 for National Press Club members and $10 for general admission.

To submit a question in advance, please put “Joan” in the subject line and email to [email protected]. The deadline for submitting questions is 4 p.m. on the day of the event.
