Product Details

Praise

West Wingers is exceptional because of the people in it: ordinary citizens who did extraordinary work and always put the American people first. We have so much to learn from their stories.”–President Biden

“There is no calling higher than public service. West Wingers brings us inspiring stories of women and men who unselfishly answered that call, remarkable citizens who worked for President Barack Obama to shape a better future for all Americans. These deeply moving stories offer more than a fascinating view into the window of history: they show us how hope becomes real, sustainable change.”–Valerie Jarrett, former senior advisor to President Obama

“These gifted thinkers will lead us to a better place. They will make a major contribution to our future—as a nation, as a people—with what they have learned working for President Obama. We all should be inspired by their involvement, their passion, and their work. Their contribution to our nation will inspire our young people to dream dreams, to be hopeful, and to never give up or give in.”–Congressman John Lewis

“There are few things more enthralling than a backstage seat in the White House, and West Wingers brings together a powerful group of Obama administration insiders to shine a spotlight on what it really takes to fight for social change.”–Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Give and Take, Originals, and Option B (with Sheryl Sandberg)

“These are essential American stories. Through diverse voices sharing their amazing experiences working to move our country forward, West Wingers creates an inspiring roadmap to a better future.” –Sheryl Sandberg, New York Times bestselling author of Lean In and Option B (with Adam Grant)

“West Wingers gives us exactly what our country needs right now: a model for compassionate leadership and a commitment to making life better for all Americans regardless of race, class, or religion.” –Van Jones, Host of The Van Jones Show and New York Times bestselling author of Beyond the Messy Truth

“It’s hard to truly understand how special the Obama White House was without having been there, but West Wingers gets you as close as humanly possible. You may not have previously known the names of the amazing team contributing to this book, but you should. Our kids should. Their stories will leave you inspired and hopeful for our future.”–Kal Penn, actor and former Associate Director of the White House Office of Public Engagement

“West Wingers is not a typical partisan political book. It’s a peek behind the curtain at the highs and lows and the joys and disappointments of working for the President of the United States. It’s impossible to read without seeing the humanity in this diverse group of voices. Each fascinating chapter tells a piece of American History from a different and often overlooked perspective.”–Kate Andersen Brower, New York Times bestselling author of First in Line, First Women and The Residence

“I loved West Wingers! It’s an Obama-era version of The West Wing, featuring a cast of do-gooders, wonks, idealists and change-makers that Aaron Sorkin never could have dreamt up. It’s a fascinating behind-the-curtain glimpse at a band of absurdly dedicated, mostly unknown and unsung true believers. Not least, it’s a postcard from a galaxy far away: a White House mostly devoid of lying, back-stabbing, leaking or high drama.” –Chris Whipple, New York Times bestselling author of The Gatekeepers

“A welcome contrast to the current dismal state of the White House.” Kirkus

“Heartfelt and earnest . . . [A] memorable collection of essays, which shares those diverse and empathetic perspectives on behind-the-scenes events.” Publishers Weekly

It’s fascinating to relive President Obama’s time in office through the eyes of the team that helped him run the country.” –Hello Giggles
