He is the author of three books, "Acting White: The Curious History of a Racial Slur" (St. Martin's Press) and "Black in the White House: Life Inside George W. Bush's West Wing" (Nelson Current). His most recent book "Blackwards: How Black Leadership is Returning America to the Days of Separate But Equal" was published by St. Martins Press (Thomas Dunne Books) on September 4, 2012. Prior to Christie Strategies, he served as vice president of a full-service issues management firm that provided integrated public affairs campaigns that combined lobbying, issue advertising, strategic public relations and grassroots pressure to solve difficult public policy problems. He was also executive vice president and director of global government affairs at a leading private public affairs firm and of counsel at the DC law firm, Patton Boggs, LLP.

As a frequent commentator on current political events, he has appeared as a political/legal analyst on Lou Dobbs Tonight, The O'Reilly Factor, Fox and Friends, Hardball with Chris Matthews, The Ed Show, The Tavis Smiley Show and Fox News Sunday.

He also acts as an outside communications and political strategist to Republican Members of the House of Representatives and the United States Senate where he advises on current policy and political matters.

Christie received his B.A. from Haverford College and his J.D. from The George Washington University National Law Center, and prior to joining Vice President Cheney's staff, he briefly served as counsel to former U.S. Senator George Allen, and as senior adviser to former House Budget Committee Chairman and current Ohio Governor, John Kasich.
