Senator J.D. Vance of Ohio, the newly announced running mate to former President Donald J. Trump, has gone on a rapid journey over the past eight years from best-selling author and outspoken Trump critic to one of Mr. Trump's staunchest defenders and, now, his would-be second in command.
Mr. Vance, 39, was known as the author of Hillbilly Elegy, a best-selling memoir recounting his upbringing in a poor family that also served as a sort of sociological examination of white working-class Americans.
