Biography
Alyssa Mastromonaco is the New York Times best-selling author of Who Thought This Was a Good Idea? and So Here's The Thing, and co-host of the Hysteria, Crooked Media's all-woman-produced podcast. She also contributes to Crooked Media's Pod Save America, is a contributing editor to Marie-Claire, and serves as Senior Advisor and spokesperson for NARAL Pro-Choice America. She previously was the youngest woman ever to serve as Deputy White House Chief of Staff of Operations and kept our country running through a government shutdown, natural disasters, national tragedies, and history-making events.
Whether sharing her journey from small-town beginnings to the Oval Office to the corporate world and beyond, discussing leadership, fighting for reproductive rights, or demystifying U.S. politics and the mechanics of the government; be prepared. Because with disarming wit, irreverent humor, and a treasure trove of colorful stories, Alyssa doesn’t hold any punches - she takes each stage by storm.
Before serving as Deputy Chief of Staff of Operations, Alyssa held several positions in President Barack Obama's administration, campaign, political action committee, and Senate office, where she began serving in 2005.
A key figure in the 'Sisterhood of the Administration 44,' she made the presence of women felt, and their voices heard – redefining the traditional White House boy's club culture. Alyssa chronicled her time in Obama's inner circle in her acclaimed New York Times best-seller Who Thought This Was a Good Idea? And Other Questions You Should Have Answers to When You Work in the White House. Soon after, she published So Here's the Thing...: Notes on Growing Up, Getting Older, and Trusting Your Gut. Described as a "twenty-first-century girl's guide to life," So Here's The Thing features reflections, essays, and interviews on topics important to young women, ranging from politics and career to motherhood and making and sustaining relationships in the age of social media.
Following her time at the White House, Alyssa served as COO of Vice Media and President of Global Communications and Strategy at A&E Networks. She serves on the board of the non-partisan voter registration organization, Headcount, and the boards of the University of Vermont Honors College and the University of Wisconsin-Madison Visitors Board.
