Rachel Abrams is a Pulitzer and Emmy-winning journalist for The New York Times, and a co-author of "Unscripted: The Epic Battle for a Media Empire and the Redstone Family Legacy." She is currently a senior producer and reporter for “The New York Times Presents,” The Times’s award-winning television documentary series for Hulu and FX. In 2022, she was part of the team that won an Emmy for “Malfunction: The Dressing Down of Janet Jackson,” and in 2018, she was part of the reporting team that won a Pulitzer Prize for public service for exposing sexual harassment and misconduct by Harvey Weinstein and other powerful figures. Prior to joining the NYTP, Ms. Abrams was a media reporter on The Times’s business desk. In 2019, Ms. Abrams, along with her colleagues James B. Stewart and Ellen Gabler, earned a Loeb Award for their article “‘If Bobbie Talks, I'm Finished’: How Les Moonves Tried to Silence an Accuser.” The story exposed how Mr. Moonves’s attempts to bury a sexual assault allegation led to his ouster as the chief executive of CBS. The article formed the basis for "Unscripted." Ms. Abrams was also part of a group of reporters who covered a crisis at General Motors involving fatal ignition switches and the federal government’s inattention to vehicle defects, which resulted in stricter government oversight of the American auto industry and earned The Times the 2014 Scripps Howard award for public service reporting. Ms. Abrams is originally from Los Angeles and graduated in 2009 from New York University, where she majored in history. She covered the film industry for Variety before joining The Times in 2013.
