This is me in Chicago in November 2004. My wife Ann and I were on a vacation to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. We were just strolling around downtown Chicago when we noticed a bunch of people gathered near an entrance to an office building. We looked over and saw Barack Obama inside, giving a press interview in the lobby.
We were just standing on the street and moments later Obama came walking out and right towards us. I quickly gave the camera to Ann and told her to catch a shot of me and Obama. As he walked past me, I said hello to him and asked for a picture. A security staff person said he has no time he must go, so I stuck my hand out to shake his hand and that's when Ann took the photo. That's me in the sweater, balding.
