How To Be An Undercover Hooker by Jessica Bruder

by Scott Beale on February 10, 2008 · 4 comments

At last week’s Ignite Portland 2 event journalist Jessica Bruder gave a great talk on “How To Be An Undercover Hooker” (here’s a video of the talk by Extensis) based on her experience attending a NYPD training class for Operation Losing Proposition.

Jessica is the author of the recently published “Burning Book, A Visual History of Burning Man” (see my previous post).

Thanks to Rob for the tip!

Jessica did a really great job. Glad that her presentation comes through, even with my shaky camera work!
