has become a high profile political commentator and cable-news staple following her time as national press secretary for U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders’s 2016 presidential campaign.
Rachel Shukert

Moderated by Diana Martinez, PhD, Film Streams Education Director and host of the Hollywood in Color podcast.
