Andrea Seabrook has been named the Washington bureau chief for the public radio business news show “Marketplace.”

Seabrook worked at National Public Radio from 2001 to 2012  and was its long-time Congressional correspondent from the U.S. Capitol. She also worked as a host of its top shows, including “All Things Considered,” “Weekend Edition,” “The Diane Rehm Show” and “Talk of the Nation.”

After leaving NPR, Seabrook created the ground-breaking “DecodeDC” podcast. It was acquired by E.W. Scripps in 2013. Seabrook left Scripps in 2015.

Seabrook is “thrilled to find a home among journalists who share her life-long goal: producing journalism that is accessible and conversational while providing extraordinary depth and context.”

She is a graduate of Earlham College.
