Mount Pleasant and Steve Poizner


Republican candidate for governor Steve Poizner released his new book yesterday. Titled Mount Pleasant: My Journey from Creating a Million-dollar Company to Teaching at a Struggling Public High School, the book chronicles the current state insurance commissioner’s time as a public school teacher in the east side of San Jose. The book release comes a month or two before the Republican primary and seems to be aimed at introducing Poizner to a wider audience. On the front page below Poizner’s name, it mentions that Poizner is the founder of a company responsible for “mobile phone GPS technology,” in case you might not know how Poizner became a millionaire.

In the interest of exploring the candidate more, I hope to read the book and post my review within a month. I also plan to read books from the other candidates running for California government offices and review them on the site.
