Andrew Kirtzman is a political consultant who founded Kirtzman Strategies, a public affairs communications firm, after a career as a print and television political journalist and author.

Early life[edit]

Kirtzman was born and raised in Manhattan's Lower East Side. He graduated from Saint Ann's School in 1978. After graduating he went on to attend the University of Pennsylvania, where he was the Executive Editor of The Daily Pennsylvanian, the student newspaper, and the Sphinx Senior Society and received his B.A. in journalism from New York University.

In 2013, he joined the administration of then New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg as senior adviser to then School Chancellor Dennis Walcott, overseeing communications and government relations for the nation's largest school district. At the end of Bloomberg's term, he became a vice president at Global Strategy Group, a national political consulting firm, before opening Kirtzman Strategies. Kirtzman served as political reporter and anchor for six years at WCBS-TV (CBS 2) in New York City until April 2008. He is the author of Betrayal: The Life and Lies of Bernie Madoff[1][2] about Bernard Madoff's $65 billion Ponzi scheme and Rudy Giuliani: Emperor of the City,[3][4] a book about the former mayor's tumultuous reign at City Hall. Kirtzman was with Giuliani on the morning of September 11, 2001 and chronicled his experience with the mayor in the paperback version of his book.[5][6]
