An award-winning journalist who has covered the White House since 1970 and reported on the activities of Presidents Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush and Obama, Tom DeFrank is the co-author of Bare Knuckles and Back Rooms, the memoir of political consultant Ed Rollins and The Politics of Diplomacy, the memoirs of former Secretary of State James A. Baker, III. DeFrank’s latest book, The New York Times best-seller Write it When I’m Gone, is based on his 16 years of private interviews with President Ford. DeFrank provides a glimpse of the executive office very few get to see, with a highly anecdotal and conversational look at presidential personalities. DeFrank reveals the human (and humorous) side of the office, as well as an assessment of Congress, the 2010 midterm elections and current Washington politics. In a presentation punctuated with amusing anecdotes, Tom DeFrank provides a penetrating look at current events and the Washington political scene.
