Early life and education

Harris grew up in Pittsford, New York, where he attended Pittsford Sutherland High School.[2] He graduated from Carleton College in 1985, where he studied American history.[2][3]

Career

After graduating from college, Harris worked for The Washington Post for 21 years, having started as an intern. In 1990, he was transferred to the Post's Richmond bureau, covering Virginia politics during Douglas Wilder's governorship. He covered the Clinton White House from 1995 to 2001. In 2003, he was a guest scholar at the Brookings Institution. He became the Post's National Politics Editor in June 2005.[4] Harris began "having conversations" in 2006 with fellow Post journalist Jim VandeHei about creating "a new publication about politics from the ground up".[5] Those conversations led to the launch of Politico in 2007 under the Allbritton Communications banner.[6]

Personal life

Harris is married to Ann O'Hanlon, and lives with their three children, Liza, Griffin, and Nikki, in Alexandria, Virginia.[3]
