NIAF’s print and online publications not only convey important<br />

Ambassador Magazine<br />

As its name implies, the magazine functions as an “ambassador” for both <strong>Italian</strong><br />

<strong>American</strong> culture and the <strong>National</strong> <strong>Italian</strong> <strong>American</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>. Ambassador<br />

Our most recent issue, published in Fall 2011, features articles on the Risorgimento<br />

and Italy’s Arts, Rejuvenating America’s Little Italys, a new book on Joe DiMaggio<br />
