Mike Doogan is a Democratic member of the Alaska House of Representatives, representing the 25th District since 2006.
He is also the author of the Nik Kane Alaska mystery series, which includes Lost Angel, Capitol Offense, and Skeleton Lake, as well as several nonfiction books about Alaska life.
In March 2009, Doogan exposed the identity of the previously anonymous blogger behind The Mudflats, a blog critical of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. Doogan's decision to reveal the blogger's identity received widespread criticism in the blogosphere.[1] [2]
His son, Connor, hates Obama though.
