The Wall Street Journal has hired Danny Lewis as a reporter and producer for its “The Future of Everything” podcast.
“Thrilled to join the team here and to start digging in to how science and tech are shaping what’s to come,” he wrote on Twitter.
He previously was a reporter/producer in the WNYC Newsroom, and a producer/host for the local edition of NPR’s “Consider This.”
Born and raised in Brooklyn, Lewis has been with WNYC since 2014, first as an intern and then as a producer and reporter. Since joining the station, he has covered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on everything from restaurants to the power grid and reported on how the NYPD continued to police low-level infractions while facing calls for reform.
He’s also covered shows of controversial comics art and investigated whether New York City’s water is really the secret ingredient behind our world-renowned pizza.
