Pete McCloskey

"The Most Dangerous Man in America" is the story of what happens when a former Pentagon insider, armed only with his conscience, steadfast determination, and a file cabinet full of classified documents, decides to challenge an "imperial" presidency – answerable to neither Congress, the press, nor the people – in order to help end the Vietnam War.

Chronicles the life of Allard K. Lowenstein, the political activist and Congressman known for his tireless anti-war and civil rights activism.

As her storied and rebellious Congressman husband enters his final years, civil rights activist Helen H. McCloskey reflects on their unusual decades-long relationship, the pressure of living in the public eye, and what the two of them had to leave behind to make it work.
