Brad Blakeman, Former White House staffer
Wednesday, May 28, 2025 | 52:51
On this edition of Amazing Arizonans, I talked with Brad Blakeman. Mr. Blakeman has led an incredibly interesting life. He’s worked for four presidents. He’s traveled and worked all over the world. At a time where we are so politically divided, it’s great to get a perspective from someone that has been a part of so much history. Being with the president on 9/11 and telling the story of such personal loss is captivating. He has been a part of so many historical events. He’s a great storyteller and has an amazing memory. I hope you enjoy the conversation.
