"These additions bring great value to the Carnegie Endowment and to the foreign policy community," said Mathews. "Karen has an important perspective to offer, after her many years as a reporter and observer of U.S. foreign policy. David's background makes him a unique bridge between the private and public sectors."

At the Carnegie Endowment, DeYoung will work on a biography of Secretary of State Colin Powell, examining the unique place he holds in contemporary American life. It will be published by Alfred Knopf in 2006. Rothkopf will explore new and emerging threats to U.S. security as well global responses to U.S. political and cultural predominance.

Karen DeYoung is on a two-year sabbatical from the Washington Post, where she has worked since 1975. There, she has held a number of leadership positions, including her current position as associate editor. She also has served as assistant managing editor for national news, national editor, London bureau chief, foreign editor, and Latin America bureau chief. She has won a number of awards, including the 2003 Edward Weintal Award for Diplomatic Reporting, Sigma Delta Chi awards for investigative reporting and foreign reporting, and a Pulitzer Prize she shared with several Washington Post colleagues for national coverage of the war on terrorism.

David Rothkopf, founder and chairman and chief executive officer of Intellibridge, a firm offering open-source intelligence and advisory services on international issues, also served for two years as managing director of Kissinger Associates. Earlier, he served as deputy under the secretary of commerce for international trade policy, where he played a central role in the Clinton Administration's groundbreaking Big Emerging Markets Initiative. He entered government after founding and serving as chairman and chief executive officer of International Media Partners, where he was editor and publisher of CEO magazine and Emerging Markets newspapers, and chairman of the CEO Institutes. He currently serves as adjunct professor of international affairs at Columbia University's School of International Affairs.
