The Crux - Tammy Vigil

Kathryn interviews Associate Professor of Communication, Boston University Tammy R. Vigil PhD, author of “MELANIA AND MICHELLE: First Ladies in a New Era.” Our most recent first ladies, Michelle Obama and Melania Trump, seem to be polar opposites in almost every way. Dr. Vigil explores how each woman has crafted her public image and used her platform to influence the country. She has served as Associate Dean of the College of Communication at Boston University. Kathryn also interviews Harvard Evolutionary Biologist Barbara Natterson-Horowitz MD, NY Times Best-Selling Author of “WILDHOOD: The Epic Journey from Adolescence to Adulthood in Humans and Other Animals.” She looks toward the animal kingdom for crucial information to understand modern adolescent issues. Natterson-Horowitz co-directs the UCLA Evolutionary Medicine Program and is President-Elect of the International Society for Evolution, Medicine and Public Health. She is featured in the NYTimes, Wall Street Journal and more.
