Inside the West Wing

By Staff Report | Entertainment

SARATOGA SPRINGS—The Jewish Community Center of Saratoga Springs and Congregation Shaara Tfille will host a ‘Live from NY’s 92nd St. Y’ satellite broadcast on Sunday, November 3 at 2 p.m.  

The program will feature Robert Gibbs and Ari Fleischer. Attendees will get to go inside the West Wing with two men who gave voice to America’s last two presidents—Gibbs and Fleischer, the first White House press secretaries for President Barack Obama and President George W. Bush.  

The event will consist of stories and candid reflection about the nation’s leadership moderated by former chief White House correspondent Ben Feller, who covered both presidents for The Associated Press.

Gibbs was a top advisor to President Obama for nearly a decade and senior advisor for his 2012 reelection. As press secretary to President Obama, Gibbs served as the primary voice of the administration on every major issue that came across the Presidents’ desk.

Fleischer was former the White House press secretary for President Bush and delivered the daily White House briefings from 2001 to 2003. In his four years working for President Bush he dealt with 9/11, two wars and the anthrax attack. His best-selling book, Taking Heat reached No. 7 on the New York Times best-seller list. 

The entire community is welcome. The Center is at 84 Weibel Avenue, Saratoga Springs. The cost is $5 per person with refreshments provided. For more information, call (518) 584-2370 or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
