The Center for the Study of American Democracy welcomes New York Times opinion editor David French.
Formerly senior editor of The Dispatch, a fellow at the National Review Institute, and a staff writer for National Review, French is now a columnist for the New York Times opinion page. A strong advocate of free expression, French served as president of the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE). French openly writes about his faith and the conflicts he has had with other Christians because of his defense of religious pluralism and opposition to Christian nationalism.
