    Live simulcast will feature Jon Meacham on Thomas Jefferson and his recent book

    logo SIFFSedona AZ (November 30, 2012) – New York’s famous 92nd Street Y returns to Sedona on Sunday, Dec. 9 when the Sedona International Film Festival hosts the live simulcast featuring Jon Meacham on Thomas Jefferson. The special simulcast event will take place at 5:30 p.m. at the festival’s Mary D. Fisher Theatre, live as it is happening in New York.

    Learn about the Founding Father who steered the states to nationhood, wrote the Declaration of Independence, and as a master politician President, doubled the size of America through the Louisiana Purchase — a man often admired but, before now, never truly understood in all his complexity.

    He has written for The New York Times, The New York Times Book Review, The Washington Post, Slate and The Los Angeles Times Book Review. In 2001, he edited Voices in Our Blood: America’s Best on the Civil Rights Movement.
