PRSA Luncheon - John Bachman

If you’ve lived for any length of time in Central Iowa, chances are you know John Bachman. During his 25 years of anchoring the news at Channel 13, Bachman interviewed six presidents, and covered other turning points in Iowans and Americans lives like September 11, the floods of 1993, the Oklahoma City bombing, and the Persian Gulf War.

Take advantage of this opportunity to join communications professionals at the August luncheon of the Central Iowa Chapter of the Public Relations Society (PRSA) where Bachman will share career highlights, answer your questions and talk about some of his experiences interviewing people like Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton.

“Not only does John have a fascinating historical perspective to share, he’s able to reveal some tips and tricks about how to land and conduct a significant national interview,” said Chapter President Dawn Buzynski.
