- Description of Pictures: David Axelrod: Believer:
David Axelrod spent eight years as a reporter and columnist for the Chicago Tribune. As a political consultant, he has managed strategy for more than 150 local, state and national campaigns. He most recently served as senior strategist to President Obama’s successful reelection campaign and also served in that same role in then-Senator Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign, before going on to serve in the White House as senior adviser to the president. After the 2012 campaign, Axelrod founded the Institute of Politics at the University of Chicago. His New York Times best-selling book, "Believer: My Forty Years in Politics," takes readers behind the closed doors of politics.
Dan Balz: Collision 2012:
Dan Balz is Chief Correspondent at The Washington Post. He joined the paper in 1978 and has been involved in the paper’s political coverage as a reporter or editor throughout his career there. In addition to his political and campaign reporting, he has served as the Post’s National Editor, covered the White House during part of the first Bush administration and over the years has written extensively about Congress. He also served as the paper’s Southwest correspondent, based in Texas, and briefly reported from London in 1997. Balz is author of two New York Times best-selling books about recent presidential campaigns: Collision 2012: Obama vs. Romney and the Future of Elections in America and, with Haynes Johnson, The Battle for America 2008: The Story of an Extraordinary Election. He is also co-author, with Ronald Brownstein of Atlantic Media, of the 1996 book, Storming the Gates: Protest Politics and the Republican Revival, an analysis of the Republican victories in the 1994 elections and the reshaping of the Republican Party. Balz has won numerous awards during his career at the Post, most recently the Robin Toner Prize for Excellence in Political Reporting. He has also received recognition from the American Political Science Association, the White House Correspondents Association, the National Press Club and the Gerald R. Ford Foundation. He is a regular panelist on PBS’s “Washington Week” and has been a frequent guest on PBS’s “News Hour,” CBS’s “Face the Nationa, NBC’s “Meet the Press,” and CNN’s “State of the Union” and “Inside Politics.” Balz was born in Freeport, Illinois. He earned a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in communications from the University of Illinois. He served stateside in the U.S. Army from 1968-1971. Before coming to the Post, he was a reporter and editor at National Journal magazine and also worked for the Philadelphia Inquirer. He is married to Nancy Johnson Balz. They live in Bethesda, Maryland, and are the parents of an adult son.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.
