Jeremy Redmon

An award-winning journalist, essayist and educator with more than three decades of experience writing for newspapers and magazines, I have reported extensively on war, politics and mental health. My assignments have taken me to the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Central America and the White House. Many of my stories are about trauma and resilience. Find them in Smithsonian magazine, Oxford American, Task & Purpose, The Bitter Southerner, The War Horse, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Richmond Times-Dispatch, USA Lacrosse Magazine and Inside Lacrosse. I serve as the nation enterprise editor for USA Today and teach for the University of Missouri School of Journalism. I am also a 2022 Ochberg Fellow with the Global Center for Journalism and Trauma. I hold undergraduate and graduate degrees in English from George Mason University. In 2019, I completed a Master of Fine Arts degree in narrative nonfiction writing at the University of Georgia's Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication.
