NBC News Correspondent Bob Dotson has travelled over four million miles and been in more motel rooms than the Gideon Bible.  The award-winning creator of the Today Show series, “The American Story with Bob Dotson,” will be the honored guest at the 2013 Kal & Lucille Rudman Media Seminar on Tuesday, April 9th. The seminar will begin at 7 PM at the Community College of Philadelphia’s Bonnell Building (North 17th Street, between Spring Garden and Callowhill). There will be a book signing and reception following the conversation. 

Dotson, an eight-time Emmy winner, will share stories about the incredible people he has brought into our homes, discuss techniques for effective storytelling on television, and preview his new book American Story, which highlights some of his favorite tales about the people who make this country great. The annual event, at which Dotson will be introduced by NBC 10 News anchor Renee Chenault-Fattah, is designed to help students, educators and professionals explore the issues and meet people who shape contemporary media.

An Evening with Bob Dotson is sponsored by the Kal and Lucille Rudman Institute for Entertainment Industry Studies of Drexel University, by TUTV-Temple University Television/the Kal and Lucille Rudman Media Production Center at Temple University and and CCPTV, the Educational Channel of Community College of Philadelphia. The event is free and open to the public.
