Timothy Egan is an acclaimed writer and veteran chronicler of the West whose interests range wide across the American landscape and American history. He is a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter, a popular columnist, and a National Book Award-winning author. When not working on books, Egan writes a weekly online column for The New York Times. Before that, he worked as one of the newspaper’s national correspondents, roaming the West and serving as its Pacific Northwest correspondent. Egan is the author of several books, including The Big Burn: Teddy Roosevelt and the Fire That Saved America. Egan’s book The Worst Hard Time: The Untold Story of Those Who Survived the Great American Dust Bowl, won the 2006 National Book Award for nonfiction. Blending rigorous historical research with a keen understanding of the American West, Egan is uniquely qualified to comment on the state of public lands in the Donald Trump era.
