Barack Obama’s relationship with Chicago is a key part of his journey to the White House. Though he was raised in Hawaii and Indonesia, Obama became synonymous with Chicago; it was the city that grew him politically and progressively, and that led him directly to his role as President of the United States. Making Obama, produced by WBEZ (a National Public Radio affiliate based in Chicago) chronicles the future president’s time in the city he now calls home, from his arrival at age 24 to his time in the Illinois Senate and beyond. A sequel to last year’s Making Oprah, Making Obama is an insider’s look at a man and a city, and how the two are forever intertwined.
