Connecticut (who also served six years in the House of Representatives). After his 36-year-career in Washington ended, Dodd was signed on to be

seven figure salary. In such capacity, he serves as the movie
industry's chief lobbyist.
Dodd briefly was a candidate for the 2008 Democratic Party nomination
for the presidency, but dropped out of the race after a disappointing
finish in the Iowa caucuses.
He grew up in Willimantic, Connecticut. His
father
Thomas Dodd was an Irish
Catholic lawyer and politician who was elected to the House and the
Senate. His son wrote a biography of his father focusing on his
service as a prosecutor at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials.
