- Elizabeth Drew, née Brenner, was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, the daughter of Estelle and William J. Brenner, a furniture manufacturer. She attended Wellesley College, where she graduated Phi Beta Kappa in 1957 with a BA in political science. Her first job in journalism was with Congressional Quarterly in 1959. She was the Washington correspondent for The Atlantic Monthly from 1967 to 1973, and The New Yorker from 1973 to 1992. She made regular appearances on "Agronsky and Company" on PBS television and hosted her own interview program, "Thirty Minutes With..." between 1971 and 1973, for which she won an Alfred I. duPont–Columbia University Award. Drew was a panelist for "Meet the Press" on NBC-TV for many years and made frequent appearances on the PBS News Hour and other radio and television programs. In 1984, she moderated the debate between the Democratic candidates for the presidential nomination.
She is the author of 14 books, including Washington Journal: The Events of 1973-74 (1975), which grew out of her reporting on the Watergate scandal; On the Edge: The Clinton Presidency (1994); Citizen McCain (2002); George W. Bush's Washington (2004); and Richard M. Nixon (2007). She gave the prestigious Knight Lecture at Stanford University in 1997.
Drew is a regular contributor to The New York Review of Books. She is a former director of the Council on Foreign Relations. She married J. Patterson Drew in 1964, and after his death in 1970, she remarried to David Webster in 1981.
