Victoria Penelope Jane ("Vicky") Ward is a British-born author, investigative journalist, columnist and television commentator. She is a magazine editor-at-large and former newspaper editor. She has lived in New York City since 1997 and is a U.S. citizen.

Journalism career

Prior to moving to the U.S., Ward was a columnist and feature writer for Britain’s The Independent newspaper. In New York City, she was the Features and News Features Editor of the New York Post (1999–2001) and Tina Brown’s executive editor at Talk (2000–2001). She was a contributing editor to Vanity Fair (2001–2012) as well as a columnist for the London Evening Standard (2007–2011). Her Vanity Fair articles covered a wide array of subject matter: politics, finance, art, and culture and society. Among other things, she wrote about Hewlett Packard, Morgan Stanley, Bruce Wasserstein, a failed coup in Africa, Kate Middleton, Valerie Plame, counter-terrorist czar Dick Clarke, Brooke Astor, Veronica Hearst, the Guggenheim, the Getty, Phillips de Pury Luxembourg, St Barths, Vivendi, Jeffrey Epstein, Washington interns, the Fairfield Greenwich hedge fund and Bernie Madoff.

In July 2017, Ward was appointed editor-at-large for HuffPost and Huffington Post Highline, their long-form magazine. Recent HuffPost exclusives have included interviews with Blackwater’s Erik Prince, Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen,[1] and Anthony Scaramucci on the White House and why he was fired.[2]

For the Huffington Post Highline, Ward recently wrote about Vice President Mike Pence’s Chief of Staff, Nick Ayers[3] and Robert and Rebekah Mercer’s influence in the 2016 election.[4] Charlie Rose later interviewed her on this piece.[5]

Ward is also editor-at-large at Town & Country magazine, where she writes about culture. Her pieces have included an article on the late, seminal Russian art collector Sergei Shchukin,[6] Frank Gehry’s first-ever sail boat design,[7] a $2 billion fraud in the modern art world and the Knoedler art trial.[8]

In her last role, Ward wrote investigative long-form articles for Esquire including a piece in October 2016 on Jared Kushner[9] In December 2016 she profiled the Russian-born cyber-terrorism expert Dmitri Alperovitch.[10]

She has contributed to, among others, the Financial Times, The New York Times, The London Times and Sunday Times, The Daily Telegraph, the UK Spectator Magazine, British Vogue, US Harpers Bazaar and Porter. She has also had on-air contracts with CNBC and Bloomberg TV. She appears regularly on MSNBC’s Morning Joe.

Ward is the author of two best-selling books, the New York Times bestseller, The Devil’s Casino: Friendship, Betrayal and the High Stakes Games Played Inside Lehman Brothers (Wiley, 2010)[11] and The Liar’s Ball: The Extraordinary Saga of How one Building Broke the World’s Toughest Tycoons (Wiley, 2014).[12] The Liar’s Ball is being developed as a possible feature film by J.C. Chandor and A24 Productions.[13] Her latest book is Kushner, Inc.: Greed. Ambition. Corruption. The Extraordinary Story of Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump (St. Martin's Press, 2019).

In 1993 she was runner-up for The Catherine Pakenham Award, Britain's most prestigious prize for long-form writing by women under the age of 25. In recognition for her journalistic work, Ward received Inspiration and Enterprise's first media award in September 2010.
