Books Descriptions
A personal, intimate photographic celebration of President Barack Obama, featuring
over 200 rare and never-before seen images from the years prior to his presidency,
from photographer, friend, and former aide David Katz In 2004, David Katz worked
alongside then Senate-hopeful Barack Obama as a photographer and personal aide.
He spent approximately six days a week alongside the future president as Obama
campaigned across downstate Illinois, and the two developed a close, professional,
and personal relationship. What began as a long-shot Senate run culminated with the
election of America?s first African American president in 2008, which Katz also
photographed.During this time, David was never without his camera, capturing
quotidian scenes from the life of a man who would soon become known the world
over: a dad playing with his small daughters; a young unknown politician walking the
streets of New York by himself with no one noticing; a devoted husband lovingly
making faces at his wife
