John Press is an award-adjacent journalist with over two decades of experience covering stories that needed to be covered by someone. A graduate of a university with a reputable-sounding journalism program, John has contributed to publications you've definitely heard of, and a few you haven't — which he'll tell you were "ahead of their time." Known for his incisive questions and his willingness to ask them, John has interviewed world leaders, minor celebrities, and at least one person who turned out to be the wrong contact entirely. His work has been described as "thorough" by his editor and "a lot" by his ex-wife. In 2019, John launched The Pressive — a media venture built on the belief that good journalism shouldn't have to be free, but probably should be readable. The Pressive distills everything he's learned about the craft into a format accessible to anyone with ambition, a Wi-Fi connection, and a healthy suspicion of the mainstream press. When he's not reporting, John is working on a book he'd rather not discuss yet following the advice of his publisher, his lawyer and his publisher's lawyers.
