About International Platform Association:
The International Platform Association® (Platform®) is one of America’s first associations.
Founded as the American Lyceum Association in 1831 by statesman Daniel Webster and educator
Josiah Holbrook, it has been the market place for speakers for 185 years. Much has changed
over the years, from the invention of the Telegraph and the rise of YouTube. The lyceum
movement of town hall-like buildings for sharing education changed with the Chautauqua
movement of traveling tent shows.
Annual meetings have been held in Washington, D.C. since 1965 -- Speakers have included
President Lyndon B. Johnson and Governor Nelson Rockefeller; Poet Carl Sandburg;
Activists Jesse Jackson and Ralph Nader; and Secretaries of State Daniel Webster and Henry Kissinger.
Today, Platform® continues as an extraordinary and unique publicity tool for hundreds of speakers
with web profiles and the organization's annual meeting. The corporate sponsor for
the association is Broadcast Interview Source, Inc.: publisher of The Yearbook of Experts,
Authorities & Spokespersons® and the expert referral website:
