NYT/The Candidates: Elizabeth Warren


In Part 3 of our series on pivotal moments in the lives of the 2020 Democratic presidential contenders, we spoke with Elizabeth Warren about how she came to be known as the blow-it-up candidate. With help from Andrew Ross Sorkin, a financial columnist at The Times and founder of DealBook; Harry Reid, a former Senate majority leader; and David Axelrod, a former Obama adviser, we explore Ms. Warren’s rise to prominence as an advocate for overhauling the financial system — and why those beliefs can help us understand her run for president now.

Fantastic 45-minute interview with EW at the link. Please listen to it when you have the time; great questions, even better answers. And Warren's description of her first trip to bankruptcy court, what she saw there and the impact it had on her will move you.
