David Litt, former senior presidential speechwriter and special assistant to President Barack Obama, will join the Kennedy Institute for a discussion on his new book, “Democracy in One Book or Less: How It Works, Why It Doesn’t and Why Fixing It Is Easier Than You Think.”

David worked at the White House from 2011 to 2016 and in addition to writing remarks for President Obama on a wide range of domestic policy issues, he served as the lead joke writer for several White House Correspondents’ Dinner monologues.

David’s New York Times bestselling memoir, “Thanks, Obama: My Hopey Changey White House Years,” was published in 2017. David served as the head writer/producer for Funny Or Die D.C. through the 2018 midterm elections, and in addition to his new book, he is currently developing a TV show based on his life in Washington, D.C.
