He is the author of nine books, including two New York Times bestsellers. Life and careerThomas was born in Huntington, New York, and raised in nearby affluent Cold Spring Harbor. A graduate of Phillips Academy, Harvard University (B.A.), and the University of Virginia School of Law (J.D.), from 1991 he was a reporter, writer, and editor at Newsweek for 24 years. Prior to that, he was at Time Magazine. Thomas began his reporting career at The Bergen Record in northeastern New Jersey. He has won numerous journalism awards, including a National Magazine Award in 1998 for his coverage of the President Bill Clinton/intern Monica Lewinsky scandal. Thomas himself had a long romantic relationship with 20 year old TIME intern Louise Wareham, when he was married and 14 years her senior. In 1992, DCI Robert Gates granted Thomas historical access to view classified Central Intelligence Agency files.[3] The fundamental authority for this policy is Executive Order 12356 (April 1982), as implemented in HR 10-24(c)4. Under these provisions, CIA may grant individual researchers and former Presidential appointees access to classified files, once the recipient of this access signs a secrecy agreement and agrees to allow the Agency to review his manuscript to ensure that it contains no classified information.[3] Former DCI Robert Gates directed that the CIA History Staff locate and provide records that would satisfy Mr. Thomas's research request.[3] Thomas's manuscript was subsequently reviewed in accordance with his secrecy agreement and approved on March 2, 1995 by the Information Review Officer of the Directorate of Operations, with the concurrence of the Office of General Counsel.[3] In 1996, Thomas penned an article for the Central Intelligence Agency's journal, Studies in Intelligence, describing his experience having been granted the rare privilege of historical access to CIA's classified files.[2] Thomas was, for 20 years, a regular panelist on the weekly public affairs TV show Inside Washington[3] until the show ceased production in December 2013.[4] He taught writing and journalism at Harvard and Princeton between 2003 and 2014. For seven years, from 2007 to 2014, he was the Ferris Professor of Journalism in residence at Princeton. FamilyHe is the son of Anna Davis (née Robins) and Evan Welling Thomas II, an editor who worked for HarperCollins and W. W. Norton & Company.[5][6] His grandfather, Norman Thomas, was a six-time Presidential candidate for the Socialist Party of America.[7] He is married, and he and his wife, an attorney, are the parents of two daughters, including writer Louisa Thomas. They live in Washington, D.C. Works
