Ceci Connolly is a highly-coveted facilitator who knows how to ask the probing question and then get out of the way. In 20-plus years in print and broadcast media, Connolly has mastered the art of guiding stimulating conversations on a range of topics.

In early 2010, she moderated a panel for the New York Stem Cell Foundation titled: "Alzheimer's Disease: How Stem Cell Research Will Make A Difference." The event, featuring some of the top scientists in the field, drew more than 400 people. She was also chosen to moderate a discussion on the new health-care law sponsored by New York University at the Library of Congress.

Connolly has moderated numerous forums for the Wye River Group on Healthcare, Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government and the Mayo Clinic. In spring 2008, she moderated a debate between former speaker Newt Gingrich and former senator Bill Bradley at the annual meeting of the American Medical Group Association.
