Power, Money and Trump: Reporting on a Post-Truth President

Saturday May 4, 2019, 7 pm
Baillie Court, Art Gallery of Ontario

New York Times investigative reporter Susanne Craig has led the hunt for facts about U.S. President Donald Trump's improbable rise to financial and political power. Her stories have pulled back the curtain on Trump's leaked tax returns and detailed hundreds of millions of dollars he received from his father, in part through fraudulent tax schemes. Join journalist Robert Cribb for a wide-ranging conversation with the Canadian reporter at the centre of the world's biggest story.

Susanne Craig writes about the intersection of money and politics and for the past three years has been covering Donald Trump and his finances. She was the reporter who in 2016 was mailed pages of Mr. Trump's 1995 tax returns and was one of the authors of the investigation The Times published in October 2018 that found the president received hundreds of millions of dollars from his father, some of it through fraudulent tax schemes. Previously, Craig was a reporter at The Wall Street Journal and worked at The Globe and Mail. Craig has won numerous awards for her work. She was the lead reporter on a team of writers who were finalists for the Pulitzer Prize for national affairs reporting for their coverage of the fall of Lehman Brothers and the financial crisis. She is also the recipient of a National Newspaper Award and Michener Award. Craig is a graduate of the University of Calgary.
