Fetterman was hospitalized at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in February 2023 for clinical depression, mere weeks after he was sworn in as the junior Pennsylvania senator. He also suffered a stroke while running for his Senate seat in May 2022.
A noted curmudgeon, Fetterman’s memoir will give a “raw and visceral” account of his journey from the risk management industry into public service.
In his tenure in the upper chamber, Fetterman has chastised his fellow Democratic Party members over their “judgmental” temperament, backed some of President Donald Trump’s Cabinet members, and defended himself against accusations he is unfit to serve the remainder of his term.
A New York Magazine report published earlier this year detailed alarm from former staffers in his office, who claimed the senator was struggling with his mental health.
“It’s a one-source hit piece, and it involved maybe two or three and anonymous disgruntled staffers saying just absolute false things,” Fetterman later told CNN.
Fetterman is co-writing Unfettered with Buzz Bissinger, who wrote Friday Night Lights, which later became a TV show on NBC and a film.
Fetterman previously served as the mayor of Braddock, Pennsylvania, then went on to become the state’s lieutenant governor, and is now the senior senator of the Keystone State.
