MSNBC is launching a live event series, MSNBC Live, that will mark the return of Luke Russert. He will serve as host and creative director of the events, which will include forums in Washington, D.C.
and other locations across the country. The live events also will include some of the network’s top anchors and hosts. Rebecca Kutler, senior VP of content strategy at MSNBC, will oversee the development and implementation of the live events, and Lauren Peikoff will serve as executive producer.
Russert worked for NBC News from 2008 to 2016, including hosting a regular show, The Briefing, for MSNBC.com. He recently authored the memoir Look for Me There, about his travels around the world and how he coped with the grief over the sudden loss of his father, Tim Russert.
