Christopher Paolini was invited to attend the Bertelsmann 175 years celebration ceremonial act at the Konzerthaus am Gendarmenmarkt in Berlin, Germany earlier today. Bertelsmann is a transnational media corporation founded in 1835, based in Gütersloh, Germany, and owner of Random House, Christopher’s publisher. Among the guests in attendance were famous authors, writers, politicians, company CEOs, and more. Visit Getty for a red carpet picture of Christopher from the event!
