Dark Money author Jane Mayer to speak in Wellesley

New Yorker reporter Jane Mayer, author of books such as Dark Money (about the Koch brothers), is slated to deliver the annual Wilson Lecture at Wellesley College on March 19. The event is free and open to the public, though you need to order tickets online beginning Feb. 6 at 9pm.

Mayer served as the Wall Street Journal’s first woman White House correspondent, and now is chief Washington correspondent for the New Yorker.

Past Wilson speakers have included former Vice President Al Gore and Caroline Myles, founder of the Save the Children Foundation.

The lecture series was endowed by Carolyn A. Wilson, a journalist and war correspondent who was a member of Wellesley College’s class of 1910.
