Ronan Farrow is the most feared man in Hollywood, and at 30 Rockefeller Plaza, and in Washington, D.C. His reporting, along with that of Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor, brought down entertainment titan Harvey Weinstein and earned Farrow a Pulitzer Prize at the age of 30. He followed the Weinstein story up with an exposé on the behavior of NBC anchor Matt Lauer, broke the story on allegations of sexual assault against then Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, and wrote the bestselling book Catch and Kill, hosting the subsequent accompanying podcast—all while completing a Ph.D. at Oxford University.
