NPC Headliners Book Event: Robert Costa, “Peril”

Washington Post reporter and National Press Club member Robert Costa will speak at a National Press Club in-person Headliners Book Event on Monday, Oct. 4. Costa will discuss “Peril,” the soon-to-be released book he wrote with journalist and Club member Bob Woodward. The book covers President Trump’s final year in office, his management of the coronavirus pandemic, attempts to overturn the 2020 election and the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6.

The program will begin at 1:30 p.m. and will include a question-and-answer session moderated by NPC Membership Secretary and Senior Congressional Reporter for Bloomberg Government, Emily Wilkins. To submit a question in advance for the speaker, put PERIL on the subject line and email to [email protected].
