Colleen Carroll Campbell
Fellow
Colleen Carroll Campbell writes about issues at the intersection of politics, religion, and culture. An author, columnist, television and radio host, and former presidential speechwriter, she frequently contributes to national publications and speaks to audiences across America.

Professional Experience
Ms. Campbell is the author of The New Faithful: Why Young Adults Are Embracing Christian Orthodoxy (Loyola Press, 2002), which explores the appeal of traditional religion and morality to a growing number of young Americans. She was awarded a $50,000 Phillips Foundation Journalism Fellowship to research The New Faithful, which has been featured in nearly 100 magazines and newspapers, including The Wall Street Journal, U.S. News & World Report, Washington Post, and Christianity Today. Since its publication, Ms. Campbell has received speaking invitations from institutions across America, including requests to present her research to staff members at the White House and on Capitol Hill.

In 2003, Ms. Campbell served as a speechwriter for President Bush. She worked directly with the President on major policy addresses, writing his speeches on such topics as education, the faith-based initiative, the fight against AIDS, and judicial appointments. Ms. Campbell has also worked as a news and editorial writer for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and as a reporter for the Memphis Commercial Appeal.

Ms. Campbell's writing has appeared in a wide variety of publications, including The Weekly Standard, First Things, National Review Online, Washington Times, Crisis, Toronto Star, Charlotte Observer, Cleveland Plain Dealer, Washingtonian Magazine, National Catholic Register, and National Catholic Reporter. She writes a weekly op-ed column for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and a bimonthly column for Lay Witness, and she has served as a regular columnist for Our Sunday Visitor, the nation's largest independent Catholic newsweekly.  She has been quoted in the pages of such publications as U.S. News & World Report, Chicago Tribune, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, and Denver Post.

A regular commentator on FOX News Live, Ms. Campbell also has appeared on such networks as CNN, MSNBC, PBS, ABC News Now, EWTN, and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC). She is the host of Faith & Culture, a television and radio show that features prominent public intellectuals and authors discussing the day's most contentious social and cultural issues. Faith & Culture airs twice weekly on EWTN television and three times weekly on EWTN radio and Sirius Satellite Channel 160. EWTN is the world's largest religious media network, which reaches more than 105 million homes in 110 countries and 16 territories. Ms. Campbell speaks to audiences across America and her essay on Alzheimer's disease, "Hope in the Ruins," is featured in the new book, Take Heart: Catholic Writers on Hope in Our Time (Crossroads, 2007), which the publisher describes as a collection of 35 essays from "the most beloved Catholic literary figures, scholars, and theologians of our day." For more information about Ms. Campbell and her work, visit http://www.colleen-campbell.com/.
