For nearly eight years now I have been working on a full-scale biography of Sen. Edward Kennedy. I have tentatively titled it, "Against the Wind: Edward Kennedy and the Tortuous Course of American Liberalism" because it uses Kennedy's life as a prism through which to explore liberalism over the last fifty years and explain why it has declined. But it is not a political book in any narrow, partisan sense. It is biography as social history.

I am interested to know if you speak on Walt Disney or what you learned in the writing of the book? I am the chair of a national organ procurement organization's annual meeting to be held in Orlando in June 2017. We'd love to have a tie to Walt Disney and think this might work well. It would be great to tie the imagination to our life-saving work in organ donation and transplantation. Please let me know.
