UCSB Arts & Lectures (A&L) presents David Gergen, former White House adviser to four U.S. presidents, CNN analyst and founder of the Harvard Center for Public Leadership. Gergen will draw from his experiences as a trusted voice on national issues to uncover the fundamental elements of effective leadership. In his new book, Hearts Touched with Fire: How Great Leaders Are Made, Gergen traces the journeys of iconic leaders past and present, including pathbreakers like Ruth Bader Ginsburg, John Lewis, John McCain and Harvey Milk; historic icons like Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Winston Churchill and Eleanor and Franklin Roosevelt; and contemporary game changers like Greta Thunberg, the Parkland students and the Black Lives Matter movement.
