Juliet Eilperin
A born-and-bred Washington, Juliet Eilperin graduated in
1992 magna cum laude from Princeton University, where she
received a bachelor's in Politics with a certificate in
Latin American Studies. In the fall of 1992 she went to
Seoul, South Korea on a Luce Scholarship, which allowed her
to cover politics and economics for an English-language
magazine. Returning to Washington, Ms. Eilperin wrote for
Louisiana and Florida papers at States News Service and then
joined Roll Call newspaper after the Republicans seized
Congress in 1994. In March 1998 she joined The Washington
Post as its House of Representatives reporter, where she
covered the impeachment of Bill Clinton, lobbying,
legislation, and four national congressional campaigns. Since April of 2004 she has covered the environment for the
national desk, reporting on science, policy and politics in
areas including climate change, oceans, and air quality. In
pursuit of these stories she has gone scuba diving with
sharks in the Bahamas, trekking on the Arctic tundra, and
searching on her hands and knees for rare insects in the
caves of Tennessee. During her first year at the Post Ms. Eilperin was the most
prolific writer on the news staff, writing more than 200
stories. In the spring of 2005 she served as the McGraw
Professor of Journalism at Princeton University, teaching
political reporting to a group of undergraduate and graduate
students. This spring Rowman & Littlefield has published her
first book, "Fight Club Politics: How Partisanship is
Poisoning the House of Representatives."
