Meryl Gottlieb, a 2016 alumna of the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism and senior partner manager, business development at Insider , will give keynote remarks in the newly-launched Joe Berman Lecture Series.

The series is aimed at examining the "Future of Media," and is created from endowment funds of the Joe Berman Professorship in the Scripps College.

Dr. Berman was dean of the Honors Tutorial College from 1995-2002, was a faculty member in the Scripps College of Communication, and served as director of engineering, operations, and production at WOUB Public Media. In 1982, he founded the J. Warren McClure School of Communications Systems Management (now the J. Warren McClure School of Emerging Communication Technologies).
