That doesn’t leave much time to sit for photos. Christopher Anderson knew he’d have to work fast. You wouldn’t know it looking at the remarkable images in the latest issue of WIRED, which Obama guest-edited. The images present the president while also revealing something about the man holding that title.
This Is 40 | The Players' Tribune
