Matthew Zencey was the editorial page editor for the Anchorage Daily News, where he covered Alaska politics for twenty-one years and wrote numerous editorials on Sarah Palin’s performance as governor. He lives in West Chester, Pennsylvania.
"Forget everything you think you know about Sarah Palin and start
fresh. Matthew Zencey, a veteran Alaskan journalist, knew the real
Palin before she was unleashed on America, and his breakthrough
book chronicles the tragic trajectory of an admirably
antiestablishment populist who succumbed to the simplistic allure
of celebrity. Zencey has unearthed the nuanced truth behind the
caricature."--Dick Polman, national political columnist,
Philadelphia Inquirer
"Matthew Zencey's book is a balanced, carefully reported, and
engaging look at Sarah Palin's actions while governor of Alaska.
Zencey comes to some surprising but well-substantiated conclusions.
As one chapter asks, 'This is the record of a Tea Party
favorite?'"--Loretta Tofani, Pulitzer Prize-winning former
reporter, Washington Post and Philadelphia Inquirer
"Veteran Alaska journalist Matthew Zencey explores Sarah Palin's
career as governor in the years before she rose to the national
stage. Zencey is fair and judicious in describing Palin's political
values, how she governed, and the friends and enemies she created
while in Juneau."--Michael Carey, former editorial page editor,
Anchorage Daily News
