Andrew M. Cuomo, who was born to immigrant parents in a working-class area of Queens, New York, grew up in a household that valued community, hard labour, and service to others.
Mario Sr. set a good example as a devoted supporter of the community and instilled in his son a commitment to helping others.
At the age of sixteen, Andrew Cuomo helped his father staple up posters for his first political campaign.
By the time he was twenty-five, he was directing his brother Mario’s successful 1982 campaign for governor of New York State.
His upbringing and ideals lead him from being a green campaign manager to a reform guru to a Clinton cabinet member at age 39 and finally to being a trailblazing governor of his home state.
All Things Possible is not a standard political memoir, but rather one man’s revelatory reflection on a life marked by a commitment to public service.
And the hard-won insights learned from both his failures and his accomplishments, in which he lays out his unique approach to confronting the status quo.
