Margaret Carlson was born Margaret Bresnahan to James Francis Xavier Bresnahan and Mary Catherine McCreary Bresnahan. She graduated from Bishop McDevitt High School in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

Carlson earned a B.A. degree in English from Penn State University, then worked for several years before earning a J.D. degree from George Washington University Law School in Washington, D.C.

Career edit

Carlson spent a year after college working at the U.S. Department of Labor and three other agencies.

Carlson covered four presidential elections for Time, but in 2005 she left for Bloomberg News where she writes a column.

At CNN she was a commentator on Inside Politics and, for 15 years, a panelist on The Capital Gang. She writes a weekly column for The Daily Beast.
