When he's not writing his own biography in the third person, Matthew Algeo writes about unusual and interesting events in American history. His latest book is "When Harry Met Pablo: Truman, Picasso, and the Cold War Politics of Modern Art," which, according to the jacket copy, is a "rigorous history with a heartwarming center." Algeo is also a journalist. He has reported from four continents for NPR News and other outlets. In addition to reporting and writing, Algeo has held jobs as a convenience store clerk, a gas station attendant, a Halloween costume salesman, and a proofreader. He also worked in a traveling circus (as a hot dog vendor; no acrobatics involved). His wife Allyson is a U.S. Foreign Service officer. They have lived in Bamako, Rome, Ulaanbaatar, Maputo, and Sarajevo. They currently live in Arlington, Virginia, with their daughter Zaya (and two cats).
