Lake Michigan College Mendel Center

Humorist, journalist, and actor Mo Rocca is best known for his off-beat news reports and satirical commentary. Currently a correspondent for CBS Sunday Morning, Rocca is also the host of CBS’s series The Henry Ford’s Innovation Nation. Rocca’s podcast Mobituaries and New York Times bestselling book of the same name reflect an irreverent but deeply researched appreciation of the people (and things) of the past who have long intrigued him—from an unsung Founding Father to the first Chinese-American superstar, from Neanderthals to the station wagon. During the moderated conversation “Mobituaries with Mo Rocca: Great Lives Worth Reliving,” he will provide an inside look at how his long love of obituaries spawned the Mobituaries podcast.
