Jodi Kantor is a best-selling author and Pulitzer Prize–winning New York Times investigative reporter whose work reveals hidden truths about power, law, gender, technology, and culture. In 2017, she was one of the reporters who broke the story of allegations against Harvey Weinstein, a major moment in the #MeToo movement. She went on to coauthor the book She Said about the Weinstein investigation, which was adapted into a 2022 film. Recently, she has been working to illuminate the Supreme Court, including a behind-the-scenes story of how the justices overturned Roe v. Wade.

Kantor will appear in conversation with Pamela S. Karlan, the Kenneth & Harle Montgomery Professor of Public Interest Law at Stanford. Karlan is co-director of the school’s Supreme Court Litigation Clinic and one of the nation’s leading experts on voting and the political process. 

Presented in partnership with the Michelle R. Clayman Institute for Gender Research as part of the Jing Lyman Lecture Series. This event is generously co-sponsored by the Office of the Provost, Department of Communication, and Stanford VMware Women’s Leadership Innovation Lab.
