About Dan

Dan Harris is an author, podcaster, and failed game show host. For two decades, he worked as an anchor and correspondent for ABC News, hosting such shows as Nightline, covering wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and producing investigative reports in Haiti, Cambodia, and the Amazon.After having a nationally televised panic attack on Good Morning America, Dan discovered meditation and then wrote the best-selling book 10% Happier as a way to encourage fellow skeptics to give the practice a shot. That led to the 10% Happier podcast and the 10% with Dan Harris meditation app (plus the failed game show). Dan lives outside New York City with his wife, son, and a rotating cast of rescue cats.

He no longer tucks his t-shirt into his corduroys.
