Annual Women's Forum New York Tea

April 2012

On April 25th, Sedgwick hosted its annual New York Women's Forum Tea.  This afternoon tea is an elegant occasion for our valued clients, contacts and other professional women from law and business to socialize and strengthen professional ties with one another and with Sedgwick's women attorneys.
 
This year's speaker was Eleanor Clift, renowned journalist and author. Eleanor Clift is currently a contributing editor at Newsweek/The Daily Beast and a regular panelist on the McLaughlin Group. Ms. Clift has been a White House correspondent for both Newsweek and the Los Angeles Times, and in her career has covered every election since 1976.  She began her career as a secretary to Newsweek's National Affairs editor in New York, and was one of the first women at the magazine to move from secretary to reporter.  She has appeared as herself in several movies, including "Dave," "Independence Day," "Murder at 1600," "Rising Sun," and the CBS series, "Murphy Brown."  She has authored several books including: "Madam President: Shattering the Last Glass Ceiling," "War Without Bloodshed: The Art of Politics," and "Founding Sisters," which is about the 19th amendment giving women the vote.
