莫妮卡·剋勞莉 - 簡介
剋勞莉於1968年在亞利桑那州出生，那年理查德·尼剋鬆當選為總統。剋勞莉對尼剋鬆的最初印象是在5歲時留下的，剋勞莉看到尼剋鬆宣佈，他决定於1974年8月8日辭職。
1990年7月3日，剋勞莉成為前總統尼剋鬆的外交政策助理，並一直擔任這個職務，直到1994年4月22日尼剋鬆與世長辭的那一天。在這4年中，剋勞莉和尼剋鬆在政治及外交政策方面無話不談。尼剋鬆曾經改變了美國的政治，改變了世界力量的對比，並成為那些追求善良與邪惡、輝煌與欺詐、無私與自私、偉大與卑微的人們崇拜的偶像。即使在去世後，尼剋鬆仍然引人註目，引起爭議，有着無窮的魅力。剋勞莉與尼剋鬆總統相處的4年，是這位前總統的最後幾年時間，
剋勞莉在科爾蓋特大學一年級攻讀政治科學時，恰逢羅伯特·考夫曼擔任學校的國傢安全問題教授。他培養了剋勞莉對外交事務和國傢安全問題的興趣。上四年級之前，當剋勞莉準備離校度暑假時，考夫曼藉給剋勞莉幾本書，其中一本是理查德·尼剋鬆所寫的《1999：不戰而勝》。
剋勞莉協助尼剋鬆撰寫了他最後的兩本書：《衹爭朝夕--美國在一個超級大國世界的挑戰》和《超越和平》。
從一開始，尼剋鬆總統就是剋勞莉的良師益友、老闆和美國政治史的導師。由於不可多得的機會，剋勞莉得以在私下場合接觸這位20世紀最重要和不朽的人物之一，耳濡目染他的思想、行為和個性。剋勞莉自1989年就開始寫日記，尼剋鬆對此全然不知。每次交談之後，剋勞莉馬上就把談話的內容、氣氛和自己的感想記下來。《不在案的記錄》中所引述的都是前總統尼剋鬆的原話。他雖然是在私人談話中表達他的政治見解和個人觀點，但他顯然知道，他的這些言論終將公之於世。
Education
Crowley holds a B.A. in Political Science from Colgate University and a Ph.D. in International Relations from Columbia University (2000). The title of her doctoral dissertation was Clearer than truth: Determining and preserving grand strategy. The evolution of American policy toward the People's Republic of China under Truman and Nixon.
Career
Writing
Crowley began written correspondence with former President Richard Nixon while attending Columbia which led to the two meeting. She had the opportunity to continue her education at Villanova University but instead accepted a position as a research assistant for Nixon. Nixon promoted her to Foreign Policy Assistant in 1990 because he appreciated her foreign policy opinions. She was an editorial adviser and consultant on his last two books, Seize the Moment (1992) and Beyond Peace (1994). She held the position until Nixon's death in 1994. Crowley used this period to record her conversations and observations about Nixon (she kept a diary), and she published two subsequent books on the former President in his final years: Nixon Off the Record: His Candid Commentary on People (1996) and Nixon in Winter (1998).
In the mid-1990s Crowley wrote a column for the New York Post. She has written for The New Yorker, the Wall Street Journal, the LA Times, the Baltimore Sun, and the Washington Times.
She was a term member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
Radio
Crowley was a commentator for National Public Radio's "Morning Edition" in the mid-1990s.
Since 2002, Crowley has had her own radio show, The Monica Crowley Show, which originally had been on weekends on Westwood One and then moved to Talk Radio Network first on Saturdays and then on weekdays 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm ET. Beginning in July 2009, The Monica Crowley Show went back to its former weekend-only format and has been available as a podcast on iTunes. Talk Radio Network cites various commitments on the part of Crowley that have made it hard for her to continue the daily show.
Television
In 1996, she joined Fox News Channel, where she was a foreign affairs and political analyst. She received her doctorate in international relations from Columbia University during this period. She substituted several times for Sean Hannity on Fox News Channel's Hannity & Colmes.
In 2004, she joined MSNBC's Connected: Coast to Coast with co-host Ron Reagan. After a nine-month run, the last show aired on December 9, 2005. Following the cancellation of Connected: Coast to Coast, MSNBC announced that Crowley would anchor a program in the noon hour. That program never debuted.
She has appeared as a recurring guest on Imus in the Morning and has hosted MSNBC's broadcast of The Best of Imus in the Morning. On October 31, 2005, Crowley appeared on The Colbert Report.
In mid 2007, Crowley returned as a contributor to Fox News Channel. She has been a regular participant on The McLaughlin Group since late 2007, taking the seat formerly occupied by conservative journalist Tony Blankley.
Some of Monica Crowley's statements to a TV audience drew international attention. On December 8, 2008 on The O'Reilly Factor, she gave her opinion about the social situation in the capital of the Netherlands, stating that "Amsterdam is a cesspool of corruption, crime. Everything is out of control. It's anarchy." Her remark provoked several public rebuttals from Dutch citizens and was widely reflected in the blogosphere.
Crowley is a regular panelist on Fox News channel's late-night satire show Red Eye w/ Greg Gutfeld. On March 17, 2009, the panel engaged in a controversial discussion about Canada's military and Federal Police force. Calling the segment "crass" and "insensitive," Canadian Defence Minister Peter MacKay called on Fox News and the panelists for an apology. Both Crowley and host Greg Gutfield swiftly provided apologies.
Personal life
Crowley was born in Arizona and grew up in Warren Township, New Jersey. She now lives in the New York City area. She is a Boston Red Sox fan. Crowley's sister Jocelyn is an associate professor at Rutgers University and is married to FOX News contributor Alan Colmes.
