SUMMARY:Town Hall: Andrew Och - Television and Multimedia Producer "First Ladies: Influence and Image"
DESCRIPTION:Andy Och\, an award-winning television and multimedia producer\, has traveled the world with his pen\, paper\, and camera. A University of Maryland graduate\, Och began his production career in music\, later adding his camera to the mix. A storyteller from a young age\, he will go anywhere in the world for knowledge\, greater understanding\, and a good story. Och is a true documentarian of life. For C-SPAN’s First Ladies: Influence and Image\, he traveled widely to tell the stories of every First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS). \nThrough this unique and historical journey to learn about first ladies before\, during\, and after their time in the White House\, Och has completed one of the most comprehensive collections of material and information about this unique sorority of women. Known as “The First Ladies Man\,” Och brings a fresh look to an oft-overlooked subject in American history. Och cannot name a favorite FLOTUS\, noting that “…their separate contributions need to be looked at as a whole because together they’ve helped sew the unique fabric of our country\, and for that we’re extremely lucky.”

SUMMARY:Town Hall: Kara Cooney - Egyptologist "The Woman Who Would Be King: Hatshepsut's Rise to Power in Ancient Egypt"
DESCRIPTION:Kara Cooney\, a professor of Egyptian Art and Architecture at UCLA\, specializes in craft production\, coffin studies\, and economies in the ancient world. Dr. Cooney earned a Ph.D. in Egyptology from Johns Hopkins University. She was co-curator of Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. She also produced a comparative archaeology television series\, Out of Egypt\, which aired on the Discovery Channel\, and is available online via Netflix and Amazon. \nIn The Woman Who Would Be King: Hatshepsut’s Rise to Power in Ancient Egypt\, Dr. Cooney crafts an illuminating biography of a lesser-known female king. As an archaeologist who spent years at various excavations in Egypt\, Dr. Cooney draws from the latest field research to fill in the gaps in the physical record of Hatshepsut’s reign as a woman in a patriarchal society. Her current research in coffin reuse\, focusing on the 20th Dynasty\, studies the socioeconomic and political turmoil that plagued the period\, ultimately affecting funerary and burial practices in ancient Egypt. Over the span of six years\, Dr. Cooney has studied and documented more than 300 coffins from collections in Cairo\, London\, Paris\, Berlin\, and Vatican City. She currently resides in Los Angeles.
