Nixon: The story behind America's 37th president

The Hauenstein Center for Presidential Studies is partnering with the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Foundation, Library and Museum to host a special event that will analyze and explore the many aspects of the presidency of Richard Nixon.

The presentation will be given by Evan Thomas, the New York Times best-selling author of "Being Nixon: A Man Divided."

In "Being Nixon," Thomas peels away the layers of a complex man who became the 37th president. Thomas' presentation will provide a surprising look at a man who was capable of great bravery, but also exceptional deviousness — a balanced examination of a president often reduced to a caricature of himself.

Thursday, October 22, 7 p.m.
