On Wednesday (10/23/19), National Geographic hosted a private event to launch a photography exhibition, book, documentary and a special November issue of National Geographic, all in celebration of women who fearlessly push boundaries.
The event featured Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, journalist Michele Norris, photographer Erika Larsen and marine biologist Asha de Vos, in conversation with Susan Goldberg, editor in chief of National Geographic.
