American University alumni Rick Leventhal is coming to the Wechlser Theater on Wednesday at 12:15 p.m. to answer questions about his experiences as an embedded journalist with Fox News.

Leventhal spent six weeks covering the war in Iraq and was embedded with the United States 1st Marine Light Armored Reconnaissance unit.

He recently joined Fox’s New York bureau coming from the network’s Chicago bureau where he worked since March of 1997.

While working for the Chicago bureau he covered the war in Afghanistan and was one of the first reporters to cover Sept. 11 as the World Trade Center fell.

Leventhal graduated with a B.A. from AU in broadcast journalism.

About 100 students can attend the talk on Wednesday. RSVP to Journalism Division Director Wendell Cochran at x2075.
