He will provide an overview of Iraq, terrorism, and other key challenges, building on his recent experience co-chairing the Iraq Study Group and the 9/11 Commission. Currently he is President and Director, Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, Washington, DC and director of The Center on Congress at Indiana University.
