Noah Shachtman is Foreign Policy's executive editor of news (1) who established notoriety as the editor co-founder of WIRED's Danger Room blog. As a self-described "technology geek", his leadership and reporting led WIRED's Danger Room blog to be 10% of the total traffic to Wired.com.

Shachtman studied theology (2) at Georgetown University and is a former student of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife, Elizabeth, and their sons, Leo and Giovanni. (1)

Noah served as Student Body President of his high school and has been noted by colleagues as "Professor X inside the Danger Room." In his June 2013 good-bye message from WIRED he noted that some of his favorite reporting obsessions were "giant blimps to shadow wars to awesomely bad military patches."

In 2013 he moderated three panels on technology, one at the Yale Law School "Nontrespassory tracking: Biometrics, license plate readers, and drones" http://www.yaleisp.org/event/location-tracking-and-biometrics-conference

one at the Center for New American Security Annual Conference session "Bugs, Bytes, and Bots" http://www.cnas.org/node/10786 "on the way emerging technologies will disrupt the national security environment and the ethical challenges posed by their use."

and also at the Brookings Institution

In a May 2013 New York Times article Shachtman was quoted in a panel with other journalists about the chilling effect of the Justice Department inquiries.
