WHAT: \"Death of a Celebrity: A PR Nightmare?\"

A local, national, and international media feeding frenzy was on
almost from the moment Anna Nicole Smith was found unconscious
at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood. Her
celebrity, questions surrounding how she died, and the status of
her infant daughter were just a few of the reasons Anna Nicole's
passing continues to make news around the globe.

PRSA Gulfstream takes an inside look at the death of a celebrity

public relations professionals and the press operate in crisis
mode and how situations can effectively be managed by
