Keynote Speaker - Hugh Hewitt
Hugh Hewitt is a broadcast journalist with a 35 year career in the air, and a law professor at the Chapman University Law School in Orange, California where he began teaching Constitutional Law in 1995 after clerking for two judges of the D.C. Circuit and working as an Assistant Counsel in President Reagan’s Office of the White House Counsel, as a Special Assistant to Attorney Generals William French Smith and Edwin Meese, and as General Counsel, Deputy Director and Acting Director of the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. Before beginning law school at the University of Michigan he worked as a writer for former President Nixon in RN’s exile in San Clemente and then in New York City.
Hewitt began his broadcast career in Los Angeles radio and television after overseeing the construction and opening of the Nixon Library in Yorba Linda California. After a decade as co-host of the nightly news and public affairs program for PBS’s Los Angeles affiliate KCET-TV from 1992 to 2002, he launched his nationally syndicated radio program for Salem Media on July 10, 2000 which is heard now on hundreds of stations across the U.S. weekdays from 3-6 PM in the east and noon to 3 in the West, and simulcast on the Salem News Channel.
Hewitt is the author of 14 books, worked as a weekly Washington Post columnist for seven years, for NBC News for four years and has moderated five GOP presidential debates —four along with CNN in the 2015-2016 cycle and one with NBC in 2020. Hewitt has conducted 30 on-the-record interviews with candidate and President Trump over the past decade and thousands of interviews with presidents, prime ministers, Academy Award winners, generals and admirals and tech executives such as Peter Thiel and Mark Zuckerberg. He is widely considered the equal of any interviewer at work today. Hewitt has delivered hundreds of speeches to every sort of audience. He informs and entertains, often with a liberal colleague such as Paul Begala.
Hugh and his wife life in northern Virginia and California, have three children and seven grandchildren who are collectively a fountain of joy and stories. He knows as much about suffering as a sports fan than anyone else having been attached to the Cleveland Browns, Guardians and Cavaliers for life. He is a graduate of Harvard College, and hails from Warren, Ohio.
