Dear New Yorker reader, (and Tenpints reader)
As I'm sure you are aware, we find ourselves in a period of great adversity. Around the world, economic upheaval, war, and dwindling energy supplies threaten to derail the promise of prosperity. At home, Americans face increasing unemployment and financial hardship, and demand reform in health care, energy, and education. Any of these problems, taken individually, would be overwhelming enough; the Obama Administration, brought to power by hope and a hunger for new leadership, must tackle all of them at once.

In order to help make sense of these tumultuous and perplexing times, The New Yorker presents The New Yorker Summit, which will take place on Tuesday, May 5th, in New York City. New Yorker writers and editors, including Malcolm Gladwell and James Surowiecki, will join some of today's most influential minds, among them Zbigniew Brzezinski, Howard Dean, Elizabeth Edwards, Richard Holbrooke, Naomi Klein, and Nassim N. Taleb. From finance and foreign policy to health care and the environment, we will go beyond noise and spin to consider the prospects for meaningful change.
With an impressive lineup of policy gurus, esteemed thinkers, and advocates for reform, the Summit will be an excellent opportunity for you to gain an insider’s perspective on what is to come. Tickets are now available; I encourage you to join us for this important event.
Sincerely,
David Remnick
Editor, The New Yorker
