The New York Times' chief White House correspondent is headed to Indiana. 

Maggie Haberman, a Pulitzer Prize recipient and political reporter for two decades, will speak at 5:30 p.m. March 18 at Indiana University's Buskirk-Chumley Theater.

Former U.S. Rep. Lee Hamilton will also present Haberman with the Lee H. Hamilton Public Service Fellowship at the event.

The 45-year-old Haberman joined The Times in 2015, and was part of a team that won the 2018 Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting for its stories investigating Donald Trump's advisers' connections to Russia. She'd previously worked for Politico, The New York Post and The New York Daily News.

The Pulitzer board praised the team for its "deeply sourced, relentlessly reported coverage in the public interest that dramatically furthered the nation's understanding of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and its connections to the Trump campaign, the President-elect's transition team and his eventual administration."

Haberman also won the White House Correspondents' Association's 2018 Aldo Beckman Award and the Newswomen's Club of New York's 2018 Front Page Award for Journalist of the Year. 

The lecture is free and open to the public.
