Jacob Sullum Biography :

Jacob Sullum is a senior editor of Reason, the libertarian monthly named one of "The 50 Best Magazines" for two years straight by the Chicago Tribune. Sullum is the author of the books Saying Yes: In Defense of Drug Use (Tarcher/Penguin) and For Your Own Good: The Anti-Smoking Crusade and the Tyranny of Public Health (Free Press). Sullum's weekly column, distributed by Creators Syndicate, is carried by newspapers across the U.S., including the New York Post, The Washington Times, and the Las Vegas Review-Journal. His work also has appeared in Cigar Aficionado, The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, and many other publications. Saying Yes has been praised in both National Review, which called it "a highly effective debunking," and Mother Jones, which described it as "a healthy dose of sober talk in a debate dominated by yelping dopes." For Your Own Good also was widely praised by reviewers, who called it "compelling" (The Wall Street Journal), "meticulously logical" (The New York Times), and a "cogent and thorough...must-read" (The Washington Post). Sullum is a frequent guest on TV and radio programs on Fox News Channel, CNN, and NPR. A fellow of the Knight Center for Specialized Journalism, he has been a featured speaker at the International Conference on Drug Policy Reform and the Conference on Computers, Freedom, and Privacy. In 1988 Sullum won the Keystone Press Award for investigative reporting, and in 1991 he received First Prize in the Felix Morley Memorial Journalism Competition. In 1998 his Reason cover story about pain treatment was a National Magazine Award finalist in the Public Interest category. In 2004 he received the Thomas S. Szasz Award for Outstanding Contributions to the Cause of Civil Liberties. Sullum first joined Reason in 1989 as an assistant editor, later serving as associate editor and managing editor. He has also worked as the articles editor of National Review and as a reporter for the News and Courier/Evening Post in Charleston, South Carolina, and The Times Leader in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. Sullum is a graduate of Cornell University, where he majored in economics and psychology.
