Barack Obama is coming to John Edwards' backyard.
On June 14, the Illinois senator will host a big-ticket fundraiser in Chapel Hill, home of the former North Carolina senator.
The event is being hosted by Steve Lerner, an investor who previously supported Virginia Gov. Mark Warner's presidential bid.
Lerner was one of three principals in FGI Marketing Communications, which was bought by Capital Strategies in 1999.
Other hosts of the reception include CapStrat CEO Ken Eudy, jazz saxophonist Branford Marsalis and SAS co-founder John Sall.
Tickets are $1,000 for the general reception, and $2,300 for the host reception.
Correction: A previous version of this post misstated Lerner's occupation.
