Condoleezza Rice Lecture and Book Signing

Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice will be at the Reagan Library on Tuesday, Oct. 19, 2010 to discuss and sign copies of her two released memoirs, Extraordinary, Ordinary People: A Memoir of Family and Condoleezza Rice: A Memoir of My Extraordinary, Ordinary Family and Me, to be released Oct. 12, 2010. Although the book signing is free to attend, tickets for the lecture are $75 per person and includes a served dinner.

In Extraordinary, Ordinary People: A Memoir of Family, Dr. Rice recounts her life–from learning to swim at 25 because as a young child she wasn't allowed in the city pool due to the color of her skin, to becoming the second woman to serve as United States Secretary of State.

Dr. Rice will be signing copies of her books from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. in the Library's Museum Store. The book signing is open to anyone who wants to attend. Books must be purchased in the Library's Museum Store to receive signature. Proceeds of the sale of books benefit the Reagan Foundation, the nonprofit organization that sustains The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum, the Air Force One Pavilion, the Center for Public Affairs and the Walter and Leonore Annenberg Presidential Learning Center.
