Steve Roberts will reflect and share stories about the extraordinary life and legacy of his wife of 53 years, legendary journalist Cokie Roberts, who was a trailblazer for women. Through her visibility and celebrity, Cokie Roberts was an inspiration and a role model for innumerable women and girls. A fixture on national television and radio for more than 40 years, she also wrote five bestselling books focusing on the role of women in American history. Cokie had many roles in her lifetime: Daughter. Wife. Mother. Journalist. Advocate. Historian. Steve will talk about how Cokie lived each day with a devotion to helping others in addition to her many accomplishments. For Steve, Cokie’s private life was as significant and inspirational as her public one. Her commitment to celebrating and supporting other women was evident in everything she did, and her generosity and passion drove her personal and professional endeavors. Steve will share stories from Cokie, A Life Well-Lived. In these stories, he has a simple goal: “To tell stories. Some will make you cheer or laugh or cry. And some, I hope, will inspire you to be more like Cokie, to be a good person, to lead a good life.”
