Dana Thomas Biography

Dana Thomas is one of the most popular and richest Journalist who was born on February 3, 1964 in Washington, D.C., United States. Dana Thomas (born February 3 1964, in Washington, D.C.) is a fashion and cultural journalist and writer based in Paris. Her works include Deluxe: What Happened When Luxury has lost its lustre as well as Gods and Kings: The rise and fall of Alexander McQueen and John Galliano.

Her book is her New York Times bestseller Deluxe: The Way Luxury lost its Luster and was released in 2007 by The Penguin Press in 2007. The book focuses on the gap between the affluent world used to be a place of luxury, one that was populated by family-owned, private companies that served the elite and the billion-dollar, mass-producing , and marketing industry that it is now. The New York Times called the Deluxe, “a crisp, witty social history that’s as entertaining as it is informative.”

In February 2015, Penguin Press published Thomas’s second book, Gods and Kings: The Rise and Fall of Alexander McQueen and John Galliano, an investigative double biography of two monumental British fashion designers who succumbed to the pressures of corporate luxury fashion in a globalized world. In 2010, McQueen killed himself; a year later Galliano was fired from the creative helm of Christian Dior for a drunken anti-Semitic outburst in a Paris café. The Mail on Sunday called it “A riveting double biography … Thomas had a ringside seat while all this divine madness unfurled.” And Huffington Post deemed “Gods and Kings”: “One of the non-fiction titles of the year … like a modern Faustian tale of tragic dimension.” Amazon named “Gods and Kings” a Book of the Month.

In 2017, Thomas was a fellow at the Logan Nonfiction Program of the Carey Institute for Global Good.

Thomas is a resident of Paris and is an active participant in The Anglo- American Press Association in Paris as well as The Overseas Press Club. She was a journalist in The American University of Paris from 1996 until 1999. The year 1987 was the time she won an award from the Society of Professional Journalists Sigma Delta Chi Foundation Scholarship as well as an Ellis Haller Award for Outstanding Excellence in Journalism.
