About Colin Clark

Colin ClarkColin Clark is editor of DoDBuzz and Pentagon correspondent for Military.com. Colin joined the Military.com team from Space News, where he covered Congress, intelligence and regulatory affairs.

Before that, he founded and edited for three years the Washington Aerospace Briefing, a twice-weekly Space News publication. He covered national security issues for Congressional Quarterly and was editor of Defense News before that. His first job covering defense was with Defense Week, where he won a national award for his coverage of the first Quadrennial Defense Review.

Colin spent almost four years as a foreign correspondent in the mid-1980s, covering the civil wars, coups and famines of East Africa for Voice of America, the Christian Science Monitor and Australian Broadcasting Corporation. While there he spent far too much time passing out cigarettes to nervous soldiers manning checkpoints.

Colin lives in Washington, D.C. with his wife, Judith, and son. His wife is a former Australian diplomat. He fishes wherever he can, reads heaps of science fiction and history and gets a kick out of sharing good wine with his neighbors and friends on his front porch.
