Helene Cooper Biography

Helene Cooper has a unique window into world events. As White House correspondent for the New York Times, she has a front row seat to the major breaking stories from Washington. Coupled with her experience as a diplomatic correspondent for the New York Times and reporter and foreign correspondent at the Wall Street Journal, she has a perspective few others can offer. She's covered international economics, politics, race, foreign policy, as well as her current focus on the White House.

Her own story is just as compelling. Born into privilege in Liberia, she fled the Liberian coup in 1980 with her mother and sister. In her bestselling memoir, The House at Sugar Beach, she chronicles her journey from affluence and security to escaping for her very life. It all led to her search, 23 years later, for the sister-and country-they left behind.
