George Stephanopoulos Biography

American journalist and former political advisor George Stephanopoulos was born in 1961 in Fall River, Massachusetts. Stephanopoulos spent his formative years growing up in the Cleveland, Ohio area before attending Columbia University in the late 1970’s. George was an outstanding student, graduating summa cum laude with a B.A. in Political Science in 1982. During his time at Columbia he also began his foray into journalism, working as a broadcaster for the university’s radio station.

George’s career in politics began as an aide to Ed Feighan, one of Ohio’s congressional members. But it was his work first with Michael Dukakis on his presidential campaign in 1988, and then later for Bill Clinton on his 1992 presidential campaign that solidified his position in the world of politics. His role in Clinton’s campaign is featured in the 1993 documentary film, The War Room.

Stephanopoulos continued his work for Clinton all the way through his first term in office, resigning in 1996. A few years later, George published the memoir All Too Human: A Political Education in 1999, which chronicles Stephanopoulos’s journey with Clinton from 1991 to 1996. The book quickly became a New York Times Best Seller.

After leaving the White House, George Stephanopoulos became a political analyst for ABC, appearing on multiple shows for the network, including: ABC News, This Week, World News Tonight, and Good Morning America. By 2008, Stephanopoulos was one of the most recognized political journalists on air, and his success only increased when he co-moderated the 2008 debate for the Democratic Party, between then Senator Barack Obama and Senator Hillary Clinton. He then went on to moderate the 2012 Republican debate between Rick Santorum, Ron Paul, and Mitt Romney.

George Stephanopoulos continues to serve as a political analyst for the ABC Network; he currently serves as the Chief Anchor for ABC News while still appearing on the network’s shows Good Morning America and This Week.
