Peter Hamby is an Emmy and Murrow Award-winning political journalist based in Los Angeles. He is a founding partner and Chief National Correspondent for Puck News, where he writes about politics, media and technology and hosts two podcasts, The Powers That Be and The Making of a President. Before Puck, Hamby was the host of Good Luck America, Snapchat’s award-winning original series about American politics. Hamby joined Snapchat in 2015 to build the company’s news products after a decade at CNN, where he covered five election cycles for the network and won an Emmy Award for his reporting on the 2012 presidential race. For his work at Snapchat, he won an Edward R. Murrow award for Excellence in Innovation.
Hamby is also the author of “Did Twitter Kill The Boys On The Bus?,” a 2013 study for Harvard’s Shorenstein Center about how Twitter forever changed politics and journalism, which The Washington Post called “the definitive work” on how Twitter upended American politics. Peter has also contributed to Vanity Fair and The Washington Post.
