In Biden’s Decision, FRONTLINE explores President Joe Biden’s early life, his decades in the Senate, and his term in the White House, leading to his decision in July 2024 to step out of the presidential election. To tell the story, director Michael Kirk and his team conducted dozens of interviews with close advisers to Biden, longtime friends, and journalists who have covered his political career for decades. The film also draws on interviews conducted previously by FRONTLINE with Biden’s colleagues and family members. All but a few of the interviews took place before Biden withdrew from the presidential race. The interviews can be explored below in video or text. The collection is part of FRONTLINE’s Transparency Project, which makes our source material available to the public. This interview is being published as part of FRONTLINE’s Transparency Project, an effort to open up the source material behind our documentaries.
