As the Chief Official White House Photographer for the Obama Administration, Pete Souza was responsible for chronicling President Obama's eight-year term, day in and day out. His new book, "Obama: An Intimate Portrait" features some of the most affecting images of the nearly two million that he captured over the course of his tenure. Souza joins Forum to discuss what it was like shadowing President Obama, how it differed from his time with President Ronald Reagan and how Souza uses Instagram to comment on the current political climate.
