The Iraq War: Dr. Vito Imbasciani

  • This is a past program
Dr. Vito Imbasciani, a Yale–trained surgeon practicing in Los Angeles, will present images taken while serving as a Colonel in the Medical Corps of the US Army during Operation Iraqi Freedom. He is the Director of Government Relations for the Southern California Permanente Medical Group, and is a veteran of Operation Desert Storm, also having served in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Iraq. 

Hammer Forum is made possible, in part, by Erika Glazer.

This ongoing series of timely, thought-provoking events addresses current social and political issues. This season, lecturers are joined onstage for a conversation with Ian Masters, noted journalist, author, screenwriter, documentary filmmaker, and the host of the radio program Background Briefing on KPFK. 

ALL HAMMER PUBLIC PROGRAMS ARE FREE

Public programs are made possible, in part, by major gifts from the Annenberg Foundation and Mimi and Werner Wolfen. Additional support is provided by Laura Donnelley, Bronya and Andrew Galef, Erika Glazer, and an anonymous donor.
