Congressman Steve Israel is a dynamic figure who has worn many hats throughout his career, from serving as a U.S. representative to becoming an author and bookseller. Representing New York in Congress from 2001 to 2017, he initially served in the 2nd congressional district before moving to the 3rd district, which spanned parts of Long Island and a portion of Queens. Known for his thoughtful political insight, Israel was a leading voice on many key issues during his tenure, bringing attention to both local and national concerns. His work in Congress earned him respect as a pragmatic and forward-thinking legislator who understood the needs of his constituents.
Since leaving Congress, Israel has shifted his focus to writing and entrepreneurship, penning two acclaimed political satire novels, "The Global War on Morris" and "Big Guns." These works, infused with humor and sharp political commentary, showcase his unique ability to blend politics with storytelling. In addition to his writing, Israel founded a bookstore in Oyster Bay, New York, paying homage to the town’s former resident, President Theodore Roosevelt. Now a political commentator and lobbyist, Israel continues to engage with the public on both the political and cultural frontlines.
