In a podcast that debuted earlier this year, former President Barack Obama and Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen – each an icon in his own rights – came together to discuss friendship, their public and private journeys, and the personal stories – narratives each has shared through politics and popular music – that can help tell the story of an America striving to become a most just, more fair union.
Their conversations have formed the basis of a book, "Renegades: Born in the USA," to be published on Tuesday, October 26, by Crown.
