Living with Integrity with Brenda Jones

Listeners, we're back this week with Brenda Jones.

Brenda Jones is an award-winning political communicator, speechwriter and author who worked in the U.S. House of Representatives in Washington, DC for nearly 16 years. There she served as communications director, primary speechwriter and national media relations manager for an American icon, Rep. John Lewis. In 2015, she was named “One of the 20 Most Powerful Women Staffers on Capitol Hill” by National Journal magazine. In 2012, she won an NAACP Image Award for her collaboration with Lewis on Across That Bridge: Life Lessons and a Vision for Change. And in 2010, she won the Theodore C. Sorenson Speechwriting Award. She is the founder and CEO of The John Lewis Institute of Peace, an American domestic peace organization. She holds an MPA from the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, where she was a Gertrude Manning Fellow, an MA in Journalism from the Alfred Pulitzer School of Journalism at Columbia University, and a BA in Journalism from Indiana University.

During our conversation, we talked about:
  • Her dad who was next to her during our conversation
  • Her work with John Lewis
  • How Brenda and her co-author Krishan decided to write her book
  • Integrity and leadership
  • Education
  • It was a warm, delicious conversation like a perfectly brewed cup of coffee
