Vanden Heuvel werd geboren in New York City, als dochter van Jean Stein, rentenier, bestseller auteur, en redacteur van het literaire blad Grand Street, en William vanden Heuvel, een jurist, voormalig Amerikaans ambassadeur, lid van John F. Kennedy's Administratie, zakenman en schrijver.

Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately, especially if potentially libelous or harmful. (December 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) At The Nation By the end of her junior year, vanden Heuvel had already worked for nine months as an intern at The Nation, after "taking the 'Politics and the Press' course taught by Blair Clark, the magazine's editor from 1976 to 1978," returning to the magazine in 1984 to serve as the foreign affairs assistant editor.[1]

In 1989, vanden Heuvel was promoted to The Nation's editor-at-large position, responsible for its coverage of the USSR.[citation needed] In 1995, vanden Heuvel was named chief editor of The Nation.[6]

By 1995, The Nation was losing $500,000 year, and its editor Victor Navasky brought van den Heuvel together with other investors in a for-profit partnership to buy the magazine (from investment banker Arthur L. Carter).[citation needed] The investors included vanden Heuvel, Paul Newman, E.L. Doctorow, Alan Sagner (former Corporation for Public Broadcasting Chairman), Peter Norton (Norton Utilities software creator) and others.[6]

In a 2005 interview with Theodore Hamm in The Brooklyn Rail, vanden Heuvel describes the contents of The Nation and its larger role in news media:

"Ideas, policy, activism, reporting, investigative reporting, as well as cultural pieces, reviews, writing. I hope people understand that about a third of this magazine, every week, is a very well edited, fascinating, cultural section, featuring reviews to people’s of the big books as well as some of the under-appreciated, under-the-radar, independent books and films and art. But the main part of The Nation is to put on the agenda the ideas and views and news that might not otherwise be there, to comment—from our perspective—on the news of the week—and to provide strategies and some measure of hope in these times.[7]

Vanden Heuvel contributed a blog at the online version of The Nation, entitled "Editor's Cut".[citation needed]

Other activities With her husband, Stephen F. Cohen, vanden Heuvel edited Voices of Glasnost: Interviews with Gorbachev's Reformers (Norton, 1989). She also edited the compilation volume, The Nation: 1865–1990.[when?][verification needed]

In 1990, vanden Heuvel co-founded, and as of this date,[when?] co-edits Vy i My (You and We), a quarterly feminist journal linking American and Russian women, and elsewhere described as a Russian-language feminist newsletter.[5]

She was editor for the collection, A Just Response: The Nation on Terrorism, Democracy and September 11, 2001.[when?] and co-edited Taking Back America – And Taking Down the Radical Right (Nation Books, 2004), and, more recently, edited The Dictionary of Republicanisms (Nation Books, 2005).

vanden Heuvel has appeared on ABC's This Week, MSNBC, CNN and PBS[when?] and has been published in The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, The New York Times and The Boston Globe.[when?]

As of December 2016, she continues to write an op-ed column for The Washington Post.[8]

Boards and other memberships Since this date,[when?] vanden Heuvel is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.[9]

She also serves on the board of the Institute for Policy Studies, the World Policy Institute, the Correctional Association of New York, and the Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt Institute and previously served on the board of the Institute for Women's Policy Research.[10][verification needed][self-published source?]

Awards In June 1987, Vanden Heuvel edited a special edition of The Nation, "Gorbachev's Soviet Union", which was awarded the New York University Olive Branch Award.[5]

Vanden Heuvel was awarded Planned Parenthood's Maggie Award for her 2003 article "Right-to-Lifers Hit Russia," a report on the pro-life movement in that country.[citation needed] She won the NYCLU's Callaway Prize for the Defense of the Right of Privacy[11] and the American-Arab Anti-discrimination Committee's "Voices of Peace" award in 2003.[5]
