Erika Prosper tells her husband, Ron Nirenberg, words of encouragement before his speech at their hotel room Monday, March 12, 2018 in Philadelphia, Pa. The San Antonio Mayor presented the 2018 George Gerbner Lecture in Communication âBe a Better Neighbor: The Education of a Mayor,â at the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania as well as coming to visit his old collegiate stomping grounds with his family. Meeting his wife there, and his first time back with his son, Ron attributes his experience at Penn as part of shaping the person and political leader he has become.
