Dear Members and Friends,

I am excited to announce that on Wednesday April 1, the International Club will hear from Ambassador John Bolton. As you probably know, he is the former Assistant to President Trump for National Security Affairs and former US Permanent Representative to the United
Nations under President George W. Bush. As his recent book (The Room Where it
Happened ) declares, he had a front-row seat to foreign policy challenges facing our
country.

Prior to his appointment, Ambassador Bolton served as Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security from May 2001 to May 2005. Previous positions he has held include assistant secretary for International Organization Affairs at the Department of State, 1989-1993; assistant attorney general, Department of Justice, 1985-1989; assistant administrator for Program and Policy Coordination, U.S. Agency for International Development, 1982-1983 and general counsel, U.S. Agency for International Development, 1981-1982.

Ambassador Bolton was born in Baltimore, Maryland. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree, summa cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa, from Yale College in 1970 and received his Juris Doctor from Yale Law School in 1974. He currently resides in Maryland with his wife, Gretchen. They have one daughter, Jennifer Sarah.

This is one you won’t want to miss. I look forward to seeing you at 6:00 pm on 1 April at the Doubletree Hotel.

Best regards,
Phil Reynolds

President, International Club of Annapolis
