Former Congressman Dan Lipinski grew up in the blue-collar “bungalow belt” on the Southwest Side of Chicago and went on to earn two engineering degrees (Northwestern and Stanford) and a Ph.D. in political science from Duke. Dan taught American Politics as an assistant professor before serving 16 years in the U.S. House of Representatives where he was known as a commonsense problem solver who brought people together and got things done.
Dan is working on a book about his work in Congress and what needs to be done to mend the dangerous divide in America. He has recently published articles in First Things, America, The Atlantic, RealClearPolitics, and Public Discourse, as well as op-eds in the The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, The Dallas Morning News, and the Chicago Tribune. Dan sits on the Board of Empower Illinois, and on the Advisory Councils of the Belmont House on Capitol Hill, the National Committee on Religious Freedom, the Sunwater Institute (Congressional Reform), and the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation.

“One of those politicos, sadly rare these days, who brought distinction to public office rather than gaining distinction from it.”
