Oprah Winfrey’s National No Phone Zone Day took place on April 30, 2010. The Washington, DC location for this event was the Newseum, and Karl Gary was asked to be the staff photographer. “Live from the Newseum” was a segment shown on the Oprah Winfrey Show, and the show was streamed on a jumbo screen inside the museum.
Gayle King, host of “The Gayle King Show” on Sirius XM radio, taped her show live from the Newseum during the event. Among King’s guests were transportation secretary Ray LaHood; DC Chief of Police Cathy Lanier; news anchor Leon Harris; and Jennifer Smith, founding director of FocusDriven. Karl’s photographs will be used by Harpo, Inc. to promote this and future events.
