Robert Gibbs

Gibbs interests me far more as a communicator than as a politician. Standing at the White House podium as the 27th press secretary under Obama, fielding hostile questions live every single day, demands a nerve most people never need to summon. What I admire is the second act: pivoting from the political front line to become McDonald's global communications chief. That arc, persuading the press one day and shaping a global brand's voice the next, tells me he treats language as a craft. Born in Auburn, Alabama, he proves that a steady, quick-witted tongue can carry you across wildly different arenas.
