Brent Cummings, an Iraq war veteran, has come home feeling he survived one war only to find himself in the midst of another one. The country he loves and defended for twenty-eight years seems to be unraveling in front of his eyes. Raised to believe in a vision of America that values fairness, honesty, and respect for others, Cummings is increasingly engulfed by the fear and anger sweeping through his beloved country as he tries to hold on to hope for America's future. David Finkel, known for his unique, in-depth reporting, spent fourteen years immersed in Brent Cummings's world to create this intimate, acutely observed, and beautifully written portrait of a man's life, thoughts, and feelings as America becomes ever more divided. Cummings was one of the unforgettable figures in Finkel's The Good Soldiers, a book about which The New York Times stated, "Finkel has made art out of a defining moment in history. You will be able to take this book down from the shelf years from now and say: This is what happened. This is what it felt like." In An American Dreamer, Finkel chronicles the everyday experiences of people, through moments of hope and despair, illuminating the struggles of many Americans today in a deeply fractured country at a time of crisis. David Finkel is an editor and writer at The Washington Post. He won the Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Reporting. A MacArthur Fellowship recipient, he is the author of Thank You for Your Service and The Good Soldiers. Finkel will be in conversation with Dana Priest, a two-time Pulitzer Prize winning journalist at The Washington Post where she has worked on national security issues for more than three decades, including reporting on global counterterrorism and intelligence operations, foreign and domestic disinformation through social media, deplorable care of returning service members, and the proliferation of private and government electronic spyware to track and censor civil society, including journalists. Dana has been a reporter and consultant to PBS Frontline where she worked on two, two-part documentaries, The Global Spyware Scandal: Exposing Pegasus and The Facebook Dilemma which won a Peabody Award. She has authored two best-selling, award-winning books: Top Secret America and The Mission, which was a Pulitzer Finalist in Non-Fiction. In the last decade she has focused on helping local news survive as a linchpin of civic life. Dana lives in Marshall, VA. and Washington DC with her husband, dog and horses.
