Speaker Series, Bryan Christy, a Talbot County resident, author, and investigative journalist. Bryan testified before Congress and has lectured for journalism programs around the world. Co-sponsored with Mystery Loves Company.
In Bryan’s own words: “For my talk I’ll speak about what it means to lead a life of exploration, places I’ve been, criminals I’ve worked to stop, species I’ve tried to help. I pioneered something called Results-oriented Reporting as a way of bringing together my background in law, accounting, criminal investigation, and storytelling in ways that effect change. That work resulted in police raids on Vatican City, the defrocking of a pedophile monsignor in the Philippines, the arrest and prosecution of the Pablo Escobar of Wildlife trafficking in Malaysia, the takedown of rhino ring in South Africa, and the end of China’s ivory industry, saving tens of thousands of elephants.
I ended my career as a journalist in part because the mechanisms a journalist counts on–a well-functioning government, objective law enforcement, America’s international clout, unbiased journalism–all came tumbling down at once, making the United States the least stable country I know. I’m home now because that’s where the problems are”.
“I’m a huge fan of your work, said Daily Show’s Trevor Noah about our speaker. After listening to him, you will be a fan as well. Author, explorer, and investigative journalist Bryan Christy will talk about his amazing life, and how his work has changed the rhino, elephant, and reptile industry. He will also discuss his latest book “In the Company of Killers.”
Bryan is the founder and former director of National Geographic Special Investigations and a National Geographic Society Rolex Explorer of the Year. He worked as a writer and chief correspondent for National Geographic Magazine, an Explorer Series television host, a documentary filmmaker, speaker, and educator.
