Ira Sohn Conference Lineup Announced!

Over the last several years I’ve had the pleasure of being able to attend the Ira Sohn Conference in New York City as something of a media person – this has allowed me to cull the insights from the conference into blog posts and tweets, essentially making my own research process something accessible to readers. Here are my notes from the 2013 conference and here are 2012’s.  

I’m excited about the lineup for this year’s conference, which happens on May 5th at Avery Fisher Hall (Lincoln Center). Check it out…
