Rod Dreher Biography

Rod Dreher is a journalist, author, and senior editor at The American Conservative, where he writes a widely read blog on culture, religion, and politics. His commentary has appeared on NPR, Fox News, CNN, ABC News, and in publications such as Wall Street Journal, Times of London, and Real Simple. Dreher has contributed to National Review, The Weekly Standard, Touchstone, Men's Health, and Los Angeles Times, among others.

He is the author of several books, including "The Benedict Option: A Strategy for Christians in a Post-Christian Nation," which examines how Christians seeking to preserve their faith might consider a degree of separation from a society moving away from traditional Christian values. His memoir, "The Little Way of Ruthie Leming: A Southern Girl, a Small Town, and the Secret of a Good Life," recounts how his sister's battle with terminal cancer and the community's response inspired him to return to his Louisiana hometown after two decades away.

Dreher’s earlier work, "Crunchy Cons," explores the desire among some conservatives for a simpler, more authentic lifestyle. An Eastern Orthodox Christian, he lives with his wife and three children in St. Francisville, Louisiana. Dreher is known for public speaking on culture, faith, and politics, often addressing the challenges facing traditional Christian communities in contemporary society.
