Susannah Meadows is a senior writer for Newsweek magazine.

She covered the presidential campaigns of Howard Dean and John Kerry, the five year anniversary of the Columbine High School massacre and the rape allegations against lacrosse players at Duke University. She wrote the Newsweek cover story, "Sex, Lies & Duke" which played a key part in portraying the accused lacrosse players in an unfavorable light as the nation was riveted by a narrative of privileged white youth accused of a brutal rape. The accused were declared innocent by the North Carolina Attorney General thirteen months after the allegations made national headlines.

She is a cum laude graduate of Duke. [1]

She is married to the novelist Darin Strauss.
