Who is Olivia Nuzzi?

Olivia Nuzzi is the Washington correspondent for New York magazine. She is the producer of the documentary Four Seasons Total.  She was born on 6 January 1993 and is currently 28 years old as of 5 December 2021. She was born and raised in New York. Her father’s name is John, and her mother’s name is Kelly.

Olivia grew up with a brother named Jonathan. She also dedicated an article to her father John and mentioned him as a tough guy with a big heart.

Later, she would drop out of Fordham University. Nuzzi had started her first job when she was in high school. She was working as a political columnist at the Tri News in New Jersey, earning $50 per month. Then, she was hired by New York Magazine and began working as the first-ever Washington Correspondent. She covered news about Congress and national politics while Donald Trump was in office after the 2016 election. She was the first to interview Trump in 2014 about his political ambitions. 

In an interview with Vox Magazine, Nuzzi talked about her experience working as a reporter on an unprecedented administration. In the interview, she said that Trump’s supporters had held their beliefs before Trump came into power, but their beliefs were further encouraged by him. She also spoke about the attack on the Capitol and about her beliefs on whether Trump’s supporters or Rightists would remain calm or cause further protests. 

Nuzzi is also co-producer of MSNBC’s Four Seasons Total Documentary. It is a third-person documentary about President Trump’s lawyer booking a press conference outside a local landscaping company instead of the lavish Fout Seasons Hotel and how the situation affected small businesses around.

She got involved with the documentary as she was part of reporting team when the incident occurred. She did miss the press conference but was asked by her followers to figure out what had happened.
