Where is Barack Obama Now? A Look at the Former President’s Post-White House Life
Since leaving office in 2017, Barack Obama, the 44th President of the United States, has split his time between two luxurious residences: a multi-million-dollar estate in Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts, and a home in Washington D.C.’s Kalorama neighborhood.
Far from retiring, Obama has remained deeply involved in a range of influential projects:
• Netflix Partnership: Through his production company, Higher Ground Productions, Obama signed a multi-year deal with Netflix. Among the highlights is the acclaimed documentary series “Our Great National Parks,” where he takes on roles as narrator, on-screen host, and executive producer.
• Speaking Engagements: He regularly appears at high-profile events and conferences, delivering paid speeches — a practice that has drawn both attention and criticism due to the high fees involved.
• Authorship: In 2020, Obama released his bestselling memoir “A Promised Land.” A follow-up volume is anticipated as he continues to reflect on his presidency and legacy.
• Political Engagement: He remains an active figure in U.S. politics, endorsing Democratic candidates and offering pointed commentary on national issues — including public critiques of his successor, Donald Trump.
