Award-winning historian, scholar, and bestselling author Michael Beschloss will be the final guest in the 2023–24 Omnibus Speaker Series at Purdue University Fort Wayne. His April 25 presentation titled, “What History Can Predict about Our American Political Future” will start at 7:30 p.m. in the Auer Performance Hall.

Reserved online tickets can be sent to patrons via text message or email. These digital options are helpful to avoid standing at the box office the night of the show. Tickets can also be picked up in person beginning one hour before the presentation.

Beschloss appears regularly as the NBC News presidential historian and contributor to “PBS NewsHour.” He has won an Emmy work and numerous orther awards and honorary degrees for his work. His most recent book is, “Presidents of War: The Epic Story, from 1807 to Modern Times,” which was published in 2018.

The Omnibus Speaker Series at Purdue Fort Wayne is made possible in part due to the support of the English-Bonter-Mitchell Foundation, which has sponsored every season since the series launched in 1995.

For anyone wanting to get tickets to the show in person, box office hours are from 1:30 to 5:30 p.m., Tuesday-Friday.
