\n\t\tTalk is part of Truman Honor Institution celebration<\/p>\n


\n\tKINGSTON, R.I. — March 23, 2005 — Jeffrey Toobin, Emmy award-winning legal analyst for the CNN News Group, will deliver the 溏心vlog免费B站 Foundation Distinguished Address as a part of 溏心vlog免费B站\u2019s celebration for being named a Truman Foundation Honor Institution. <\/p>\n


\n\tToobin will speak in Edwards Auditorium at 7 p.m. on April 6. His talk is free and open to the public.<\/p>\n


\n\t Toobin\u2019s speech \u201cTalking Law in Plain English\u201d is reflective of his job at CNN. He can be seen almost nightly simplifying complex legal issues into understandable language for viewers. Most recently, he can be seen commenting on the Michael Jackson trial.<\/p>\n


\n\t Toobin joined CNN in 2002, after a seven-year stint as a legal analyst for ABC News, where he commented on some of the nation\u2019s most provocative and high profile cases, including the O.J. Simpson civil trial and the Kenneth Starr investigation of the Clinton White House. He received a 2000 Emmy Award for his coverage of the Elian Gonzales custody saga.<\/p>\n


\n\t A staff writer for The New Yorker magazine since 1993, Toobin has written on such legal affairs as the 2001 dispute over Florida\u2019s votes for president and the trial of Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh.<\/p>\n


\n\t He has written several critically acclaimed, bestselling books including A Vast Conspiracy: The Read Story of the Sex Scandal that Nearly Brought Down a President; The Run of His Life: The People v. O.J. Simpson; and Too Close to Call: The 36-Day Battle to Decide the 2000 Election. He is currently writing a book about the Supreme Court. <\/p>\n
