Ann Coulter is an American columnist, author and attorney, known for ad hominem attacks on liberalism and members of the Democratic Party.

Coulter was raised in New Canaan, Connecticut in a upper middle class family. Her father was a lawyer who she describes as a "union buster."

After graduation from the University of Michigan School of Law, she clerked for Pasco Bowman II of the United States Court of Appeals, as an attorney in the Department of Justice Honors Program, and had a private practice in New York City; she also worked for the Senate Judiciary Committee handling crime and immigration issues. Later, she worked for the Center for Individual Rights in Washington.

Coulter writers weekly legal columns for Human Events where she discusses judicial rulings and Congressional legal matters. She writes a syndicated column for the Universal Press that is carried by over 100 conservative newspapers. She is a contributing editor for National Review Online.

Coulter had a contract with USA Today to cover the Democratic National Convention, but was replaced due to an editing disagreement. She wrote an article that began, "Here at the Spawn of Satan convention in Boston. . . ," and referred to some female attendees as "corn-fed, no make-up, natural fiber, no-bra needing, sandal-wearing, hirsute, somewhat fragrant hippie chick pie wagons." USA Today refused to publish the article.

Her books include High Crimes and Misdemeanors, How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must), Slander, and Treason, and Godless: The Church of Liberalism, all of which appeared on the New York Times bestseller list.
