Jon Ossoff

In a few years, Jon Ossoff went from unknown to a U.S. Senator. He lost his first campaign -- a tight race in a special election for the 6th Congressional District but racked up plenty of attention and campaign donors. Three years later, he won his second campaign and became the youngest current Senator. Before politics, Ossoff joined a filmmaking firm, and the topics of his documentaries included corrupt judges in Ghana and atrocities that the Islamic State committed in Iraq.
