Career

Craig began her career as a summer intern for the

intern for the Windsor Star 1991; her first full-time job was as a reporter for the Windsor Star in Windsor, Ontario.[4]

She originally wrote for

bureau chief for coverage of the New York State government.[6][7][8] In 2015, Craig left Albany to become the Times' New York City Hall
bureau chief.

She is the recipient of the

National Newspaper Award in Canada (Business - 1999)[9] and several Gerald Loeb Awards.[10][11] Additionally, she was the lead journalist on a team that was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize for National Affairs Reporting in relation to coverage of the Lehman Brothers and their role in the financial crisis of 2008.[12]

On October 1, 2016 the New York Times published an article co-authored by Craig, which stated that Donald Trump had reported a loss of $916 million in 1995, which could have allowed him to avoid paying income taxes for up to eighteen years.[13] In subsequent television interviews, Craig identified herself as the reporter who had received a portion of Trump's 1995 tax records in her mailbox from an anonymous sender.[14] In 2019 she and two other reporters shared the Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Reporting for "an exhaustive 18-month investigation of President Donald Trump’s finances that debunked his claims of self-made wealth and revealed a business empire riddled with tax dodges".[2] On September 27, 2020, she and others further reported on Trump's tax record, exposing that Trump paid $750 in federal income tax during 2016 and no income taxes at all in 10 of the previous 15 years.[3]
