}}Tracy Clayton (born 1982)[1] is an African American writer "who gained national visibility as one of the hosts of BuzzFeed's hit podcast Another Round,"[2] and hailed as "Best of 2015" by iTunes,[3] Slate,[4] Vulture,[5] and The Atlantic.[6]

Early life

Clayton is from Louisville, Kentucky[7] and attended Transylvania University in Lexington.[8]

Career

Before joining BuzzFeed full-time in 2014, Clayton wrote for Madame Noire, Uptown Magazine, The Urban Daily, PostBourgie[9] and The Root. She developed the popular Tumblr, "Little Known Black History Facts", now a feature on Another Round.[10]

Another Round

{{Main|Another Round (podcast)}}

Clayton and her co-worker Heben Nigatu launched the first episode of Another Round, produced by BuzzFeed, on March 25, 2015. The show received positive critical acclaim. The A.V. Club described Clayton and Nigatu as "passionate and sharp in their distinct points of view."[11]

An Okayplayer profile said, "known all over the digital world as one of the sharpest voices in the podcast game as well as Black Twitter, Tracy Clayton is consistently one of the smartest people in whatever room she occupies."[11] [12] Elle praised Clayton and co-host Heben Nigatu's ability to "serve up a blend of humor, politics, and frank observation that not even the most deft hosts can seem to replicate." Clayton made headlines in the fall when she pressed then-Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to address the crime bill her husband passed as president: '[D]o you ever look at the state of black America and think, 'wow, we really fucked this up for black people?' "[13][14] The Guardian praised their work as "witty, irreverent, intelligent."[15] Also writing for The Guardian, critic Sasha Frere-Jones called Clayton and Nigatu "leading American cultural critics."[16]

Clayton announced that she had been laid off by BuzzFeed on September 19, 2018, along with most of the other staffers who worked on BuzzFeed's original podcasts. [17]

Post-BuzzFeed

On February 11, 2019, Netflix's Strong Black Lead initiative announced that they were launching a new podcast featuring interviews with legendary Black members of Hollywood, called Strong Black Leads, to be hosted by Clayton. The first podcast premiered on February 12, 2019 and Lynn Whitfield was the guest.[18]

Awards

Fast Company named Clayton to its "Most Creative People 2016" list "for mixing comedy with commentary."[19]

In 2016, The Root named Clayton to The Root 100, the magazine's "list of 100 African Americans, ages 25-45, who are responsible for the year's most significant cultural moments, social movements and big ideas." The citation described Clayton as "a superstar at BuzzFeed, the millennial-driven media powerhouse where she writes big, funny things" and co-hosts Another Round, "an unapologetically black space that shuts down 'What will white people think?' respectability."[20]

Clayton was named the 2016–2017 Ida B. Wells Media Expert-in-Residence at Wake Forest University's Anna Julia Cooper Center.[21]

She was named to Ebonys Power 100 list of "disruptors" in 2017.[22]

Personal life

Clayton lives in Brooklyn.[23]
