DESCRIPTION:Curious about what it takes to work as a TV reporter\, or who’s behind-the-scenes of your favorite radio program? \nCNN reporter Hadas Gold\, Washington Post columnist Alexandra Petri\, and NPR Morning Edition producer Ashley Westerman will share the formative experiences they’ve had and key insights gained by working in media in D.C. in a panel discussion moderated by Heather Moran\, Sixth & I’s Executive Director. \nThe panelists – who have all achieved success and recognition for their work in a short amount of time – will share how they got their start\, the unique triumphs and challenges of working as a woman in media\, and advice for those interested in pursuing a similar path.

She is the author of A Field Guide to Awkward Silences. She joined The Post as an intern in 2010\, after graduating from Harvard College. \nWesterman produces coverage of notable happenings for Morning Edition\, including the European migrant crisis and the 2016 presidential campaign.
