Biografie & Werdegang des Autors

Benjamin Aaron Shapiro was born in Burbank, California, on January 15, 1984, and grew up in Los Angeles County in a politically conservative Jewish family. A precocious student, he skipped grades, entered UCLA at 16, earned a B.A. in political science in 2004, and went on to graduate from Harvard Law School in 2007. His emergence as a public writer came unusually early: after writing for UCLA’s Daily Bruin, he joined Creators Syndicate at 17, becoming the youngest nationally syndicated columnist in the United States.
