Episode Description

In this episode of Newsmakers, former US Ambassador to Luxembourg David McKean spoke to Delano magainze editor-in-chief Natalie Gerhardstein about his newest book which recounts the rise of Adolf Hitler and the start of World War II through the eyes of four US ambassadors. 


"The fact that Roosevelt was communicating directly with his ambassadors, that's somewhat undheard of today. Certainly, in certain countries, the President would be talking directly to an ambassador, but we have ambassadors all over the world and probably only a few that would be in conversation with President Biden today,"said McKean.
