Everwhere. By karen sherman. What a title, right . Each word of the title has meaning within itself and i think you will see that eliminated today during the conversation that karen will have with barbara. I am Marjorie Sims managing director at the Aspen Institute and sly pleasure to step in for my boss pam mosley who is the executive director of aspen and the Vice President at the Aspen Institute.

Again thank you for being here and im not going to spend a lot of time because you have the bios in front of you and i think its important to get into the conversation that i am honored to be able to introduce karen
