Kahn graduated from Harvard University in 1987, where he earned a bachelor's degree in American history and served as president of The Harvard Crimson.[2] In 1990, he received a master's degree in East Asian studies from the Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.[3]
Careeredit
Kahn joined the Times in January 1998, after four years as China correspondent for The Wall Street Journal. Before the Journal, he was a reporter at The Dallas Morning News, where he was part of a team of reporters awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1994 for international reporting for their stories on violence against women around the world.[3] In June 1989, the Chinese government ordered Kahn to leave the country because he was working as a reporter while using a tourist visa.[4]
Kahn was assistant masthead editor for International at the New York Times from 2014 to September 2016.[6] In 2016, Dean Baquet appointed him as managing editor for the Times, where in time he was recognized as Baquet's likely successor as executive editor.[7]
Personal lifeedit
Kahn is of Lithuanian Jewish descent and the eldest child of Dorothy Davidson and Leo Kahn (1916–2011),[8][9] founder of the Purity Supreme supermarket chain in New England and co-founder of the global office supply chain Staples.[10] Leo had been awarded a journalism degree from Columbia University, after which he briefly had worked as a reporter, prompting a continuing interest in journalism that was reflected in his frequent dissection of newspaper coverage with his son.[11]
