"This is a pivotal moment in our democracy, and we are privileged to have Ann Marimow on campus to offer her insights on the inner workings of the Supreme Court," said Peter John Loewen, the Harold Tanner Dean of Arts and Sciences. "We're grateful that the Zubrow visiting journalist program enables us to bring such high caliber journalists to Cornell and I'm looking forward to Ann's engagement with the campus community."

Marimow follows the work of the high court for the Washington Post at a time of historic change and heightened scrutiny of its justices. She has reported on the federal courts for more than a decade and written revelatory stories about Donald Trump's lasting legacy on the judiciary, the aftermath of the Supreme Court's decision eliminating the nationwide right to abortion and gaps in the judiciary's system for investigating workplace misconduct. She has covered the confirmations of three Supreme Court justices and Trump's two impeachment trials, and broke the story about the Obama Justice Department's leak investigation that targeted a Fox News reporter as a possible criminal co-conspirator.
