Author Steven Levy (Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution) has been confirmed as a keynote speaker for The Last HOPE, taking place in New York City July 18, 19, and 20 at the Hotel Pennsylvania.

Levy's book, published in 1984, covered everything from hacker ethics to hacker history and was a defining work of the culture which continues to be referenced to this day. He has also written several books on computers, technology, cryptography, the Internet, cybersecurity, and privacy. In addition, he is chief technology writer and a senior editor for Newsweek and has contributed to a variety of other publications, including Wired.
