Bryan Burrough Biography

Bryan Burrough is the author or co-author of eight books, including the New York Times best-sellers "Barbarians at the Gate," "Public Enemies," "The Big Rich" and "Forget the Alamo." After ten years at The Wall Street Journal and twenty-five at Vanity Fair, he now lives in Austin, where he is Editor at Large at Texas Monthly. Last year his Texas Monthly podcast, ``Stephenville,’’ peaked at No. 8 of nationwide downloads. His next book, "The Gunfighters: How Texas Made the West Wild," will be published by Penguin Press in June.

Burrough embarked on his career in journalism after earning his degree from the University of Missouri School of Journalism in 1983. His time at The Wall Street Journal was marked by critical acclaim, as he won the Gerard Loeb Award for excellence in financial journalism three times. These accolades reflect Burrough's dedication to the craft and his skill in reporting complex financial stories. In 1992, Burrough transitioned to Vanity Fair, where he has held the position of correspondent since.

In addition to his reporting, he has authored eight books, including notable titles such as "Barbarians at the Gate: The Fall of RJR Nabisco" and "Public Enemies: America's Greatest Crime Wave and the Birth of the FBI, 1933–34". His works provide a testament to his extensive knowledge of financial history and American crime waves, enhancing his credibility as an authoritative voice in these areas.

Burrough's contributions to journalism extend beyond his reporting and authorship. He has written book reviews and op-ed articles for publications such as The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and The Washington Post. Furthermore, he has made appearances on Today, Good Morning America, and in various documentaries, demonstrating his ability to articulate complex ideas to diverse audiences. Currently residing in Texas, Burrough continues to engage readers and viewers with his insightful analysis and compelling storytelling.
