Garrett Boorojian and Aaron Bennett discuss relationship building in a team environment.

"Aaron Bennett

Senior Speechwriter

Aaron’s parents suspected that he might have a future in persuasive communications after he delivered a passionate pitch for adopting a pet — complete with a 15-slide PowerPoint presentation. The effort was moderately successful: he wanted a puppy, but ended up with a betta fish and a lesson in the art of compromise.

Many, many years later, Aaron joined Fenway fresh off the Harris-Walz presidential campaign — where he drafted remarks for vice presidential nominee Tim Walz, wrote for and traveled the battleground states with Mrs. Walz, and led the surrogate speechwriting operation. He was also a key member of the writing team at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, which produced speeches and stories that resonated from the United Center to living rooms and social media feeds all across the country.

Before hitting the campaign trail, Aaron spent three years with Speaker Nancy Pelosi. As Pelosi’s chief speechwriter in her final term as Speaker, he handled everything from speeches and statements to video scripts and social media posts. His work captured news cycles and helped drive one of the most productive periods of policy-making in history — including pandemic relief and generational climate action, as well as Pelosi’s historic visits to Ukraine and Taiwan.

After the Speaker stepped down from congressional leadership, Aaron helped her voice cut through the crises and chaos of the 118th Congress as her top communications strategist, spokesperson, and speechwriter. He also collaborated with Pelosi on her #1 New York Times Bestseller, The Art of Power.

Joining Fenway is a homecoming of sorts for Aaron. Back in 2020, the firm gave him his first-ever shot at professional speechwriting, recruiting him to help draft a few op-eds and remarks for Biden campaign surrogates.

Aaron has lived in D.C. for a decade — but he won’t let you forget he’s a proud New Jersey native. You can usually find him exploring the best restaurants our nation’s capital has to offer – when he’s not trekking across the country and world with his adventure-seeking partner and fellow Hoya, Abbey.

"When You Come at the King: Inside DOJ's Pursuit of the President, From Nixon to Trump

by Elie Honig

"[A] deeply researched, keenly analytical, and frequently provocative chronicle of this singular judicial entity. . . . A senior legal analyst for CNN and former assistant U.S. attorney, Honig is well-suited to the task of providing a historical overview of the special counsel's function with the ever-evolving context of politics, partisanship and political skepticism." —Booklist (STARRED review)

"A fascinating, fast-paced insider’s account....[a] riveting, deeply reported book.” —Anderson Cooper

“Every page hums with gripping anecdotes and breaking news journalism." —Douglas Brinkley

Imagine you’ve been put in charge of investigating your own boss—who also happens to be the most powerful person on the planet.

You might unearth information that will be politically, professionally, and personally devastating to your subject, and you alone hold the power to indict and potentially imprison him. At the same time, the boss can fire you and end the case—and might even turn the tables and launch an inquiry aimed at you. As the lone-wolf assassin Omar put it in The Wire: “You come at the king, you best not miss.”

That’s the crucible for any Special Counsel. For decades, the Department of Justice has appointed outside prosecutors to handle our highest-stakes cases. But do these independent investigations lead to just results?

In When You Come at the King, CNN senior legal analyst Elie Honig delivers a fast-paced, insider’s account of the most important Justice Department investigations..."
