Beaverton Lecture Series presents Nicholas Kristof

Beaverton Lecture Series is building community through ideas, perspectives, conversation, and welcomes Pulitzer Prize Winning author Nicholas Kristof on October 1st, 2026, at 7pm.

A Yamhill, Oregon farm boy turned Harvard graduate and Rhodes Scholar, and a New York Times columnist since 2001. He has reported from six continents and 140+ countries, won two Pulitzer Prizes, and co-authored the No. 1 best-seller “Half the Sky.”

“A Pulitzer Prize Winner’s Thoughts on Fixing the World’s — and Oregon’s — Problems”
From Tiananmen Square to Darfur to the main street of his Oregon hometown, Kristof has spent four decades chronicling human struggle — and the stubborn hope that outlasts it. A candid evening on what a lifetime of reporting has taught him: how we find hope, and how we build it.
