Newsom’s Memoir Pulls Back the Curtain Ahead of a 2028 Run
Gavin Newsom’s new memoir, Young Man in a Hurry, leans into personal history over policy, offering a candid portrait of his family, upbringing, and high-profile relationships to preempt critics as he contemplates a 2028 presidential bid, while largely sidestepping a governing philosophy and omitting recent political flashpoints like the French Laundry scandal; the book emphasizes identity over policy and ends before his current governorship begins.
