Amy Siskind (born December 16, 1965) is an American activist and writer. She is the author of The List: A Week-by-Week Reckoning of Trump’s First Year (2018).

Early life and education

Siskind was born in Marblehead, Massachusetts to Jewish parents, Bernard Siskind and Selma Lipsky Siskind, and is the youngest of five siblings.[1][2][3] She attended Marblehead High School, graduating in 1984.[4]

She received a BA in Economics from Cornell University in 1987[5] and an MBA in Finance and International Business from the NYU Stern School of Business in 1992.[6]

Career

As a Wall Street executive, Siskind was a pioneer in the distressed debt trading market. She became the first female Managing Director at Wasserstein Perella & Co. at the age of 31, and later ran trading departments at Morgan Stanley and Imperial Capital, where she was also a partner.[7][8]

In August 2008, she co-founded The New Agenda in her living room with 30 Hillary Clinton supporters who alleged sexism and misogyny were at play during the 2008 election.[9][10] It is a non-profit organization "dedicated to improving the lives of women and girls by bringing about systemic change in the media, at the workplace, at school and at home".[10] {{As of|August 2018}} she is its president.[11]

Siskind has drawn criticism from liberals for voting for John McCain over Barack Obama and her support for Sarah Palin.[12] She has been accused of being a grifter by Eoin Higgins of The Outline.[13] After drawing criticism on Twitter over her comments on Neo-Nazi rallies two days before Unite the Right, progressive group Seattle Indvisible cancelled a scheduled appearance with her.[14]

In November 2016, Siskind started keeping a weekly list of not-normal events of the Trump administration, and posting the lists on social media.[15] In September 2017, she was named in Politico's 2017 "Politico 50".[16] In March 2018 she compiled the first year of weekly lists and published them as The List: A Week-by-Week Reckoning of Trump’s First Year. In June 2018, Siskind started The Weekly List podcast to accompany the lists;[17] writing in Forbes in July 2018, Jo Piazza listed this as one of the "Podcasts Created by Women You Need to Be Listening To Right Now".[18]

Siskind drew controversy in December 2018, when she announced "I will not support white male candidates" in the 2020 Democratic Party presidential primaries. Siskind confirmed that she called Boston College to complain when one of its adjunct professors, David Pakman, objected to her tweet.[19]

Personal life

Siskind lives in Mamaroneck, New York with her two children.[17][7][20] She is openly lesbian.[21]
