Andy Kroll
Reporter, ProPublica
Andy Kroll is a reporter for ProPublica covering voting, elections and democracy.
He and his colleagues received the 2024 Nellie Bly Award for Investigative Reporting for their expose about conservative powerbroker Leonard Leo. Their podcast, “We Don’t Talk About Leonard,” was a finalist for the Investigative Reporters and Editors Award for long-form audio journalism and an honorable mention for the American Bar Association’s Silver Gavel award.
He was previously the Washington bureau chief for Rolling Stone. His reporting there about a series of cyberattacks on congressional campaigns helped lead to the indictment of a California political operative. Before that, he was a senior reporter at Mother Jones, where his work on self-dealing during the Trump presidency sparked multiple congressional investigations.
