SUMMARY:Saad Mohseni\, Time 100 Honoree\, Author\, and CEO of Media Company Moby Group\, Presents New Canaan Library’s William Attwood Lecture
DESCRIPTION:New Canaan Library is pleased to announce this year’s William Attwood Lecture will be delivered by Saad Mohseni\, author of Radio Free Afghanistan: A Twenty-Year Odyssey for an Independent Voice in Kabul and the Chairman and CEO of Moby Group\, Afghanistan’s largest media company.Please register to attend: newcanaanlibrary.org.  Elm Street Books will be on site with copies available for purchase.\nSaad Mohseni will speak about his book Radio Free Afghanistan\, a deeply moving and surprising story of the attempt to build a truly independent media company in contemporary Afghanistan. He will be interviewed by Tom Freston\, former CEO of Viacom and a founding member of MTV Networks.\n \nIn his compelling narrative\, Mohseni charts a twenty-year effort to bring a free press to his country after years of Taliban rule and relates how that effort persists even after the Taliban’s return to power in 2021. Mohseni’s position at Moby affords him unique insights into this extraordinary yet troubled country\, the youngest in the world outside of Sub-Saharan Africa. His powerful account captures the spirit and resilience of the Afghan people—notably the hundreds of men and women still working in Moby’s Kabul office today\, who\, once again under Taliban rule\, create programs\, report the news\, and educate the public.\n \nThe Attwood Lecture: The William Attwood Lecture Series presents distinguished speakers from the global fields of journalism\, politics\, government\, and literature to the community. The Series honors longtime New Canaan resident\, journalist\, and author William Attwood\, who during his professional career was a presidential speechwriter for John F. Kennedy and ambassador to Guinea and Kenya. Saad Mohseni joins a roster of esteemed Attwood lecturers\, including Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch\, Arthur Schlesinger\, Doris Kearns Goodwin\, Richard Holbrook\, David Brooks\, and many others.\n
