Alexander Shoumatoff (born November 4, 1946) is a journalist and author who was Vanity Fair's senior-most contributing editor from 1986 to 2015, and a staff writer at The New Yorker from 1978 to 1987. He has authored 11 books and was a founding contributing editor of Outside magazine and Condé Nast Traveler. Most of his books are extensions of his long-form journalism that has appeared in dozens of American and international magazines and other literary sources and collections. For Vanity Fair, Shoumatoff covered international dictators in South America and Africa, as well as many political candidates in the United States since the 1990s, often before they chose to run for office, including John Kerry, Donald Trump, Bill Weld, Robert Kennedy Jr., and Al Gore. In 1976, he spent six months in the Amazon rainforest where he was the first remote visitor to tribes that became his book Rivers Amazon which led to a long career in global journalism. In 1986, he wrote an article about the murder of Dian Fossey that was optioned to become the movie Gorillas in the Mist. Shoumatoff was called "consistently the farthest flung of the far-flung writers at The New Yorker" by The New York Times, "the greatest writer in America" by Donald Trump, and "one of our greatest storytellers" by Graydon Carter.
