Everything about John Tierney Journalist totally explained
John Marion Tierney (born
March 25 1953) is a
journalist who has worked for the
New York Times since
1990.
Tierney writes a science column, Findings, and blog,
TierneyLab
for the Times. He was previously a columnist on the Op-Ed page (2005-6) and wrote a column about New York, The Big City, that ran in the New York Times Magazine and the Metro section from 1994 to 2002.
Tierney became increasingly identified with
libertarianism and identifies himself as a libertarian. He wrote columns critical of
rent stabilization, the
War on Drugs,
Amtrak and compulsory
recycling. His article on "Recycling Is Garbage" has the dubious distinction of breaking the
New York Times Magazine's hate mail record.
Tierney started his journalism career as an undergraduate at
Yale University, where he was editor of the
Yale Daily News magazine. He went on to work for newspapers (the
Bergen Record and the
Washington Star) and magazines (including
Science 86, Health and
Discover).
He and novelist Christopher Buckley co-wrote the best-selling comic novel, God Is My Broker, a send-up of financial and spiritual self-help books (Random House, 1998). He also wrote The Best-Case Scenario Handbook, a parody of the popular Worst-Case Scenario Handbook series.
Tierney dated another current New York Times columnist, Maureen Dowd, when they both worked at the Washington Star (External Link
