Mayor Cory Booker to speak at Pioneer Institute dinner - BostonHerald.com


Mayor Cory Booker to speak at Pioneer Institute dinner - BostonHerald.com:

"The Newark, N.J. mayor who carried on a facetious feud with “Tonight Show” host and Brookline native Conan O’Brien is in Boston tonight to discuss the more sober topic of urban school choice and reform.

Mayor Cory Booker is the keynote speaker at the Lovett C. Peters Lecture and Dinner sponsored by the Pioneer Institute.

Booker, a rising figure in national Democratic politics, proved he could pursue a second career in comedy after carrying on a frivolous spat with O’Brien."
