Andrew Sullivan is one of today’s most provocative social and political commentators. A former editor of The New Republic, he was the founding editor of The Daily Dish and has been a regular writer for The New York Times Magazine, The Atlantic, Time, Newsweek, New York Magazine, The Sunday Times, and now, The Weekly Dish. Sullivan has never shied away from staking out bold positions on hot-button issues. A fiercely independent conservative, in 1989, he wrote the first national cover story in favor of marriage equality. His essay, “The Politics of Homosexuality,” which appeared in The New Republic in 1993, has been called the most consequential of the decade in the gay rights movement. He’s a pioneer of online journalism and one of the first political writers to champion the presidential campaign of Barack Obama. In the past five years, he has been a vocal foe of both Donald Trump and the wokeness on the left. Out on a Limb: Selected Writing, 1989 – 2021 (Avid Reader Press/Simon & Schuster) samples his writing on culture, politics, religion, and philosophy.
