Jane Mayer
Jane Mayer is a staff writer for The New Yorker and the author and co-author of several books, most recently The Dark Side: The Inside Story of How the War on Terror Turned into a War on American Ideals, which is a finalist for the 2008 National Book Award.

She writes about politics for The New Yorker, and has been covering the war on terror. Some of her recent subjects have included the Pentagon’s secret torture policy, how the United States outsources torture (rendition), the prison at Guantánamo Bay, and the legality of C.I.A. interrogations.

Prior to joining The New Yorker, she was a reporter for the Wall Street Journal.
