Michael Isaac Stein
Hello! I'm Michael, a passionate and award-winning journalist with a decade-long career, primarily as an investigative reporter based in New Orleans covering both local and national news for outlets including The Nation, The Intercept, NPR, The New Republic and Bloomberg.
​While primarily a writer, I'm also a photojournalist, audio producer and video editor. I have experience as an editor, copy editor and fact checker. And I'm a seasoned investigator/researcher — skilled at obtaining public records, accessing archives, analyzing data, tracking sources and finding creative ways to answer whatever question may be at hand.
​
I pride myself on being a quick study and hard worker who can get the job done. I began freelancing full time in 2024 and I'm always seeking new opportunities. Please feel free to get in touch:
