The Oklahoma City high school, Northwest Classen, where Elizabeth Warren graduated in 1964 as photographed on Tuesday, Dec. 10, 2019. The Massachusetts senator and Democratic presidential candidate has campaigned for the White House for nearly a year telling audiences nationwide that she grew up on "ragged edge of the middle class" and that her mother dramatically secured a minimum wage job at a nearby Sears at age 50 that kept the family from losing its home near the school after her father had a heart attack. But her emotional story omits some important context and nuance about her family's financial situation and her mother's employment. (AP Photo/Will Weissert)
