Tim Cavanaugh 
Web Editor
Tim Cavanaugh is the Web editor of Reason, the libertarian monthly named one of "The 50 Best Magazines" for two years straight by the Chicago Tribune.
Cavanaugh manages, edits, and, when all else fails, writes all the content for Reason Online, makes sure the Hit and Run blog runs on time, and works to ensure that Reason meets the demands of its rapidly growing number of satisfied readers. For Reason, he has written about Rob Reiner's expensive efforts to keep all Californians brain-fed and smoke-free, Hizbollah's complex position in the new middle east, the long, happy life of America's anti-defamation industry, the hubbub over embryonic stem cell research, and many other topics.
Prior to coming to work for Reason, Cavanaugh edited the late, lamented Suck, which was arguably the first, and was indisputably the most hated, daily content site on the web. He has more than ten years' experience working for daily and weekly newspapers, and a variety of magazines, trade papers and web efforts.
Cavanaugh's articles have appeared in The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, The San Francisco Chronicle, The Beirut Daily Star, San Francisco Magazine, Mother Jones, Agence France-Presse, Wired, Newsday, Salon, Orange County Register, The Rake magazine, and countless alternative and community papers too embarrassing to mention. His own site, The Simpleton, gets updated once every blue moon.
Tim Cavanaugh lives in California with his wife and two daughters.
