Member Introductions

Since we have a few new people on here, I thought it would be good to have a space to say who we are, what brought us here, what we'd like to get out of this, etc.

I'll get things started!

I'm Mike and I work as a copy editor in New York. I live in Connecticut with my wife, new baby, and two pugs. I started this group after seeing how many people there are, like me, reading their way through a bio of each president. I've become more engaged in this project than I ever imagined and I'm already thinking about all the deeper dives I can do once I make it all the way through. I'm fascinated by the presidency, political history, and on a larger level, how power is accumulated and put into use by these people. I hope that, by talking to all of you, I can discover new takes that I haven't considered and have a space to flesh out some of the threads I'm noticing throughout these many lives.

So tell us all a little something about yourself and what you hope to see here.
