Jonathan Cohn has been at The New Republic since 1997--as its executive editor, and since 1999, as a senior editor.
He writes frequently about domestic politics and policy, with an emphasis on health care, work-family issues, and campaign finance reform. Prior to joining The New Republic, Jonathan was executive editor of the American Prospect, where he remains a contributing editor.
As a 2002-2004 media fellow with the Kaiser Family Foundation, Jonathan is also working on a book. It will be about the U.S. health care system -- and, more specifically, what happened to it during the 1990s.
Jonathan grew up in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and is a graduate of Harvard University, where he was president of The Harvard Crimson. He has also written for the Boston Globe, Mother Jones, The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Slate, and the Washington Monthly. He is now based in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
