Peed joined the Times newsroom in 2011 when he helped establish Opinion’s research department. He also assigned and edited pieces for the Op-Ed page and Sunday Review.
He has also contributed to the Book Review and Metro. Later, he left the Times to work on a book and returned to the newsroom in March 2022.
