Surviving Ohio State - Los Angeles Documentary Screening
2025-09-17 18:30 - 22:00 (America/Los_Angeles)
Please join Public Justice in Beverly Hills, CA on Wednesday, September 17th, for a special viewing and discussion of Surviving Ohio State.
This powerful and unflinching HBO Max documentary showcases the decades of abuse and assault that took place at Ohio State University under OSU physician Dr. Richard Strauss. OSU not only ignored but actually facilitated what was happening, as countless students and athletes were sexually assaulted by Strauss.
In 2018, Public Justice filed suit on behalf of many of those who were abused by Strauss. Today, Public Justice represents 106 survivors who are demanding that OSU do right by those who were harmed and make critical changes that will protect future generations of students. Some of our clients are featured in Surviving Ohio State.
Join us to meet and hear from Former U.S. Army Major Steve Snyder-Hill, one of the survivors of Strauss’s abuse, Adele Kimmel, who is co-counsel for the 106 survivors and the Director of Public Justice’s Students’ Civil Rights Project, and Public Justice CEO Sharon McGowan.
Special thanks to Public Justice Board Members Ray Boucher and Conal Doyle for generously co-hosting this event. The event will take place at the home of Conal Doyle, address provided upon registration.
