Biography

Born in Cincinnati in 1945 as Gail Gleason,^[1] Collins attended Seton High School before earning a B.A. in journalism at Marquette University in 1967 and an M.A. in government at the University of Massachusetts Amherst in 1971.^[6]^[7]

Following graduation from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, she wrote for Connecticut publications, including the Hartford Advocate,^[8] and, in 1972, founded the Connecticut State News Bureau, a news service providing coverage of the state capital and Connecticut politics.^[9] When she sold the bureau in 1977, it had grown into the largest service of its kind in the United States.^[9] As a freelance writer in the late 1970s, she wrote weekly columns for the Connecticut Business Journal and was a public affairs host for Connecticut Public Television.^[9]^[10]

From 1982 to 1985 Collins covered finance as a reporter for United Press International.^[6]^[9] She wrote as a columnist for the New York Daily News from 1985 to 1991.^[6]^[9]

From 1991 to 1995, Collins worked for Newsday.^[6]^[9] She then joined The New York Times in 1995 as a member of the editorial board,^[7] and later as an op-ed columnist. In 2001, she was named the paper's first female Editorial Page Editor, a position she held for six years. She resigned from this post at the beginning of 2007 to take a six-month leave to focus on writing her book When Everything Changed: The Amazing Journey of American Women from 1960 to the Present, returning to the Times as a regular columnist in July 2007.^[2]

Beyond her work as a journalist, Collins has published several books: The Millennium Book, which she co-authored with her husband, CBS News producer Dan Collins; Scorpion Tongues: Gossip, Celebrity and American Politics; America's Women: Four Hundred Years of Dolls, Drudges, Helpmates, and Heroines; the aforementioned When Everything Changed; and As Texas Goes: How the Lone Star State Hijacked the American Agenda.^[2]^[11]^[12] She also wrote the introduction for the 2013 50th-anniversary edition of The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan.^[13] In 2019, her book No Stopping Us Now: The Adventures of Older Women in American History was published.^[14]

Collins taught journalism at Southern Connecticut State University from 1977 to 1979; and from fall 2009 until 2012, she co-taught (with Seth Lipsky) an opinion writing course at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.^[11] She has been a frequent guest on NPR and on Jon Wiener's podcast, Start Making Sense.^[15]^[16]
