Featured Guest Speaker - Herbert E. Meyer (1946-2019)
Herb Meyer served during the Reagan Administration as Special Assistant to the Director of Central Intelligence and Vice Chairman of the CIA’s National Intelligence Council. In these positions, he managed production of the U.S. National Intelligence Estimates and other top-secret projections for the President and his national security
advisers. Herb is widely credited with being the first senior US Government official to forecast the collapse of the Soviet Union -- a forecast for which he later was awarded the U.S. National Intelligence Distinguished Service Medal, which is the Intelligence Community’s highest honor.
Mr. Meyer hosted and produced The Siege of Western Civilization, a DVD outlining the threats to our security, our economy, and our culture that became an international best-seller.
Formerly an associate editor of FORTUNE, he authored several books including The War Against Progress, Real-World Intelligence, and Hard Thinking. Mr. Meyer and his wife, Jill, co-authored How to Write, which is among this country’s most widely used writing handbooks.
Mr. Meyer’s essays on intelligence and politics have been published in The Wall Street Journal, National Review Online, The American Thinker, Ricochet, and the Hoover Institution.
He wrote a number of eBooks including: How to Analyze Information: A Step-by-Step Guide to Life’s Most Vital Skill, and The Cure for Poverty, that explains how the Free Market works and how entrepreneurs create jobs. Mr. Meyer was a guest on leading television and radio talk shows, and he also wrote a popular booklet entitled Why is the World So Dangerous, available at amazon.com.
His article "A User's Guide to Politics" is an excellent read made available by Hoover Institution, and re-posted on the NWBC "Items of Interest" webpage.
