Elizabeth Drew (born November 16, 1935) is an American political journalist and author.
Elizabeth Jane Brenner was born on November 16, 1935, in Cincinnati, Ohio. She is the daughter of William J. Brenner, a furniture manufacturer, and Estelle Brenner (née Jacobs).
Drew attended Wellesley College, where she was a Phi Beta Kappa and graduated in 1957 with a BA in political science. Her first job in journalism was with Congressional Quarterly from 1959.
She was Washington correspondent for The Atlantic Monthly (1967–1973) and The New Yorker (1973–1992). She made regular appearances on "Agronsky and Company" and hosted her own interview program, Thirty Minutes With... for PBS between 1971 and 1973, for which she won an Alfred I. duPont–Columbia University Award. Drew was a panelist for Meet the Press for many years and made frequent appearances on the PBSNews Hour when it was presented by Jim Lehrer and still occasionally appears on The NewsHour and other radio and television programs.
Drew was a panelist for the first debate in the 1976 U.S. Presidential election, and moderated the debate between the Democratic candidates for the nomination in the 1984 race.
Drew has published 14 books, including Washington Journal: The Events of 1973-74 (1975), an account of the Watergate scandal; Portrait of an Election: The 1980 Presidential Campaign (1981); On the Edge: The Clinton Presidency (1994); Citizen McCain (2002); and George W. Bush's Washington (2004). Her most recent book is Richard M. Nixon (2007). Washington Journal was re-issued in 2014, with a new afterword.
In Black Hawk Down, Mark Bowden wrote of "Elizabeth Drew's On the Edge, an account of Clinton's first years in the White House. Drew's is the best account I've read of the Somalia episode from the White House's perspective."
She was chosen to give the Knight Lecture at Stanford University in 1997.
