Who Is Maggie Haberman’s Husband?

In January of 2021, attorneys representing Nick Sandmann announced that Haberman was one of many media personalities that they were suing for defamation for her coverage of the 2019 Lincoln Memorial Confrontation

In 2018, Haberman’s reporting on the Trump administration earned the Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting (shared with colleagues at the Times and The Washington Post), the individual Aldo Beckman Memorial Award from the White House Correspondents’ Association, and the Front Page Award for Journalist of the Year from the Newswomen’s Club of New York. Trump himself has repeatedly responded to negative articles in the Times by calling her a “Hillary flunky” and a “third rate reporter”.

In October 2016, one month before Donald Trump defeated Hillary Clinton in the U.S. presidential election, a document was released by WikiLeaks that showed the Clinton campaign’s use of Haberman to place sympathetic stories in Politico. “[The Clinton campaign] has a very good relationship with Maggie Haberman of Politico over the last year. We have had her tee up stories for us before and have never been disappointed. While we should have a larger conversation in the near future about a broader strategy for reengaging the beat press that covers HRC, for this we think we can achieve our objective and do the most shaping by going to Maggie.”

Haberman was hired by The New York Times in early 2015 to be a political correspondent for the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign. According to one commentator, Haberman “formed a potent journalistic tag team with Glenn Thrush”.

Haberman married Dareh Ardashes Gregorian, a reporter for the New York Daily News, formerly of the New York Post, and son of Vartan Gregorian, in a November 2003 ceremony on the Tribeca Rooftop in Manhattan. They have three children, and live in Brooklyn.

Haberman’s professional career began in 1996 when she was hired by the New York Post. In 1999, the Post assigned her to cover City Hall, where she became “hooked” on political reporting. Haberman worked for the Post’ s rival newspaper, the New York Daily News, for three and a half years in the early 2000s, where she continued to cover City Hall. Haberman returned to the Post to cover the 2008 U.S. presidential campaign and other political races. In 2010, Haberman was hired by Politico as a senior reporter. She became a political analyst for CNN in 2014.
