Join American University&#39;s Women &amp; Politics Institute for a virtual conversation with WPI Executive Director Betsy Fischer Martin and award-winning journalist Kati Marton, author of the book, The Chancellor: The Remarkable Odyssey of Angela Merkel. Heralded as the “definitive biography of German Chancellor Angela Merkel,&quot; Marton&#39;s new book provides unique detail into &quot;remarkable rise and political brilliance of the most powerful—and elusive—woman in the world.”<br /><br />Based on “rigorous research” and “unparalleled empathy,” Kati Marton explores how Angela Merkel overcame liabilities as a “triple outsider”— a scientist, a woman, and an East German—to ascend to the chancellery. Ultimately, Marton reveals how Merkel has “redefined the image of a female leader” and portrays a woman who has “survived extraordinary challenges to transform her own country and return it to the global stage.” <br />https://www.crowdcast.io/e/Kati-Marton/register?utm_source=profile&amp;utm_medium=profile_web&amp;utm_campaign=profile
