NEW SHOW! No one has a firmer grasp on the slippery finances of Donald Trump than Susanne Craig, the Calgary-raised, Pulitzer Prize-winning, New York Times investigative reporter. Lucky Loser (her much anticipated new book co-written with Times colleague Ross Buettner) is a meticulous examination spanning nearly a century, filled with scoops from Trump Tower, Mar-a-Lago, Atlantic City, and the set of The Apprentice. At a moment when Trump’s tether to success and power is more precarious than ever, here for the first time is the definitive true accounting of Trump and his money —what he had, what he lost, and what he has left—and the final word on the myth of Trump, the self-made billionaire.
Here’s an exclusive opportunity to hear from Craig herself, in conversation with political strategist Zain Velji, on the new opening night of the 29th annual Imaginairium festival. It’s part of Wordfest’s mission to put Calgarians at the centre of the most vital stories in these challenging times.
