Hannah Jewell

The Washington Post has appointed Hannah Jewell as a writer and editor on “The 7” newsletter team, based in Britain.

The 7 provides, as its title suggests, coverage of the seven top weekday stories in various categories such as politics and opinion.

Jewell will also write The Daily Briefing and help edit The 7 podcast and The 7 DMV newsletter. Since August 2017, she has served as a national video reporter. She has also worked at BuzzFeed News as a senior writer.

She authored three books, including “100 Nasty Women of History” (2017), “She Caused a Riot” (2018), and “We Need Snowflakes” (2022).

Jewell has a bachelor’s degree from the University of California, Berkeley and a master’s degree from the University of Cambridge.

Be sure to congratulate Jewell on Twitter.
