Pittsburgh Speakers Series

The speakers for the 2017-2018 season are:

"Thank you for introducing us to trailblazers of our era! This is what the Series is about!"

"Yet another passionate, engaging, fascinating speaker. Thank you for the diversity and the quality of the speakers you present. Looking forward to hearing each year's line-up!"

"Since its inception, the Pittsburgh Speakers Series has presented a virtual 'Who's Who' of national and global figures. Without exception, the speeches have been consistently thought provoking and highly informative. The Speakers Series is truly a Pittsburgh treasure!"

"He was everything you would want in a speaker. He was thoughtful and insightful, with a perfect balance of being serious and humorous. I was disappointed when the night was over."

"The speaker's great sense of humor took this lecture from outstanding to better than outstanding. His knowledge, experience, and analysis were so insightful that he made sense of current events that these days don't seem to make any sense at all."

"At first we were reluctant to purchase the entire series. However, it turned out that the speakers we were least interested in initially, were the ones we enjoyed the most. Now we understand why it is sold as a series."

"For someone who did not enjoy Monty Python when I was growing up, I had little enthusiasm going into the night — Wow, I couldn't have been more surprised. What a pleasure, a comic genius!"

"The speaker captivated us… creative, clear, and humorous talking about history and its relevance today. Every answer was succinct and funny at times. He motivated me to become more interested in our history and reminded my husband of his all time favorite professor."

"I was spellbound from beginning to end."
