LOOSE ENDS 12/18: Steve Kornacki and Ingrid Reed ×
By Pam Hersh
In New Jersey, Steve Kornacki has achieved Bruce Springsteen rock-star status among the politically passionate and electoral nerdy set. His chinos are now as iconic as Springsteen’s denims. And Ingrid Reed, the producer of Steve’s Princeton speaking events, has the appeal among New Jersey political aficionados of a Dolly Parton at a Country Music Awards ceremony.
Working far more than nine to five and often 48 hours nonstop without sleep, Kornacki, the NBC News national political correspondent, whose granular coverage of election results has earned him national acclaim, spoke on Dec. 10 at a virtual Princeton Public Library/Princeton Adult School event.
