Timeline

1964

Frank Anthony Bruni (born October 31, 1964) is an American journalist and long-time writer for The New York Times.

1986

Bruni was educated at the Loomis Chaffee School, an independent boarding and day college preparatory school in Windsor, Connecticut, followed by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, from which he graduated Phi Beta Kappa in 1986 with a B.A. in English.

He was a Morehead Scholar and wrote for the student paper, The Daily Tar Heel.

He then attended Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism, from which he graduated second in his class with a master of science degree in journalism, and also won a Pulitzer Traveling Fellowship.

After graduating from Columbia, Bruni joined the staff of the New York Post and then moved on to the Detroit Free Press, where he did a wide range of beats, including a stint covering the Persian Gulf War.

He spent more than a year as the movie critic and also wrote extensively about LGBT issues and AIDS.

1992

In 1992, he was a runner-up for the Pulitzer Prize in feature writing for his profile of a convicted child molester.

1995

In 1995, Bruni took a job with The New York Times as a metropolitan reporter and often wrote for the Times Sunday magazine and for Sunday Arts & Leisure.

1998

In 1998, he was assigned to the Washington, D.C., bureau, where he covered Capitol Hill and Congress, before being sent on the campaign trail to follow then-Texas Governor George W. Bush.

He then covered the White House for the first eight months of the Bush administration and served as the Washington-based staff writer for the Sunday magazine.

2002

In July 2002, he was promoted to Rome bureau chief.

Two years later, he became the Times restaurant critic.

After more than five years in that position, he returned briefly to the magazine before becoming an op-ed columnist.

2004

One of his many previous posts for the newspaper was as its chief restaurant critic, from 2004 to 2009.

He is the author of three bestselling books: Born Round, a memoir about his family's love of food and his own struggles with overeating; Where You Go Is Not Who You'll Be, about college admissions; and Ambling Into History, about George W. Bush.

2009

Born Round deals in part with his time as the Times restaurant critic and was named one of the best nonfiction books of 2009 by The New York Times, Publishers Weekly, The Washington Post and Amazon.com.

In the Times Sunday Book Review, Dominique Browning raved that "the love with which Bruni writes about his family is breathtaking."

Publishers Weekly deemed Born Round a "powerful, honest book about desire, shame, identity and self-image."

2011

In June 2011, he was named an op-ed columnist for the newspaper.

His columns appear twice weekly and he also writes a weekly newsletter.

In April 2021, Times Opinion Editor Kathleen Kingsbury announced that Bruni would be stepping down from his role as a columnist and joining Duke University in June 2021 as Professor of the Practice of Journalism and Public Policy in the Sanford School of Public Policy.

Since joining Duke, he has continued to write his Times newsletter and remains a contributing opinion writer for the newspaper.

In a review of it in The Washington Post, Wesleyan University President Michael Roth called it "a humane, measured book" with "lessons for a very wide audience indeed."

2016

In 2016, the National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association gave him its Randy Shilts Award for his career-long contribution to LGBT Americans.

His freelance work has appeared in several magazines, including Conde Nast Traveler.

Although he formalized a relationship with CNN in September 2017 and appears on its shows as a commentator about four times a week, he also appears occasionally on Real Time with Bill Maher, and has been a guest on late-night talk shows as well.

His memoir, The Beauty of Dusk, published by Simon & Schuster, reflects further on the experience and discusses aging and physical limitations among Baby Boomers who once thought themselves invincible.
