On Tuesday, former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer will sit down with ProPublica’s Jesse Eisinger and Jake Bernstein to discuss some of the causes of the financial crisis and what can be done to prevent future problems. The event will take place on October 11 at 6:30 p.m. Eastern at the Tenement Museum in New York City (108 Orchard Street).

This will be the first of a monthly series of ProPublica Investigate This/Tenement Talk conversations. They will happen the second Tuesday of every month and the next one (November 8) will feature Tracy Weber and Charles Ornstein talking with Dr. Marcia Angell, the former editor of the New England Journal of Medicine, about their Dollars for Docs project.
