NPR's Congressional Correspondent, Andrea Seabrook, will speak on Congressional campaigning on Thursday, February 16, as part of the Explorations Lecture Series at Craven Community College. The series is a joint effort between PRE and Craven Community College Lifetime Learning Center. Seabrook's lecture: The Never-Ending Campaign or What is Wrong with These People, will begin at 7:30 pm at Orringer Auditorium on the New Bern campus of Craven Community College. Admission is free. An authority on the comings and goings of daily life on Capitol Hill, Seabrook has covered Congress for NPR since January 2003 explaining the daily complexities of legislation and the longer trends in American politics. She delivers critical, insightful reporting – from the last Republican Majority, through the speakership of Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats' control of the House, to the GOP landslide of 2010. She and NPR's Peter Overby won the prestigious Joan S. Barone award for their Dollar Politics series, which exposed the intense lobbying effort around President Obama's Health Care legislation. Their most recent collaboration, this time on the flow of money during the 2010 midterm elections, was widely lauded. A frequent guest host of NPR programs, including Weekend Edition and Talk of the Nation, Seabrook has also anchored NPR's live coverage of national party conventions and election night in 2006 and 2008.Before coming to NPR, Seabrook lived, studied and worked in Mexico City, Mexico. She ran audio for movies and television, and even had a bit part in a Mexican soap opera. Seabrook earned her bachelor's degree in biology from Earlham College and studied Latin American literature at UNAM - La Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico.Photo credit: Doby Photography/NPR
