About This Event

Join us to celebrate the publication of Perpich: A Minnesota Original by Ben Schierer.

Rudy Perpich was one of a kind. As Minnesota’s longest-serving governor, he built bridges where others saw impassible divides: between rural and urban life, labor and business interests, local politics and international trade. Perpich: A Minnesota Original explores the life and legacy of one of the state’s most consequential political figures.

Ben Schierer is the former two-term mayor of Fergus Falls, Minnesota. A former Bush Fellow and NewDEAL Leader, he received his master’s of public administration degree from the Hubert H. Humphrey Institute.
