Malkin, born to Filipino parents who immigrated to the USA shortly before her birth, describes her parents as not being particularly politically active. The family later moved to Absecon, New Jersey, where Malkin attended Holy Spirit Roman Catholic High School, following her parents’ Roman Catholic faith. At the school, she actively participated in editing the school newspaper and taking piano lessons. After graduating, Malkin studied at Oberlin College in Ohio, initially planning to major in music but later switching to English. Throughout her college years, she held various part-time jobs, including working as a tax preparation aide and a network librarian. Her first article faced criticism from the college community, and she later described her alma mater as “radically left-wing”.

After completing her education in 1992, Malkin began her career at the Los Angeles Daily News as a columnist, and she continued in that role until 1994. She then worked for a year at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, a non-profit libertarian research institute. In 1996, she moved to Seattle and started writing columns for The Seattle Times. In 1999, she joined Creators Syndicate, and then began contributing to Fox News Channel. She also hosted The O’Reilly Factor for a period but subsequently departed after the Boston Globe published an article containing derogatory remarks about her, which were not refuted by Fox News. Nevertheless, she still appears on Fox News programs.

Malkin garnered public attention when she made allegations regarding presidential candidate John Kerry’s supposed lies about his Vietnam War record. She also engaged in disputes related to the Jamil Hussein controversy, questioning the existence of Iraqi police Captain Jamil Hussein, who was claimed to be a source for over 60 stories about the Iraq war. In 2006, Malkin posted a column titled “Seditious Santa Cruz vs. America”, in response to Student Against War group’s protests. Refusing to remove personal data of some of the students she had included in the article, Malkin became involved in an internet conflict with the campus group.

As an author, Malkin published her first book, “Invasion: How America Still Welcomes Terrorists, Criminals, and Other” in 2002, which became a New York Times bestseller and significantly bolstered her net worth. Two years later, she wrote “In Defense of Internment: The Case for ‘Racial Profiling’ in World War II and the War on Terror”, in defense of the internment of thousands of Japanese Americans in prison camps during World War II. The book received strong criticism from civil rights organizations and the liberal section of society. Subsequent books include “Unhinged: Exposing Liberals Gone Wild” (2005) and “Culture of Corruption: Obama and His Team of Tax Cheats, Crooks, and Cronies”.

Aside from her writings, Malkin has launched several politically oriented blogs, including MichelleMalkin.com, and was recognized as one of the “best-read national conservative bloggers” by American Republicans. She also founded Hot Air, a website that also gained a “conservative” label, and Twitchy, an adapted version of Twitter.

Besides her literary efforts, Malkin directed the documentary “Daniel In The Den”, expressing her disagreement with the court’s verdict sentencing sexual predator Daniel Holtzclaw. She also directed the political show “We Will Not Confirm” and the documentary TV series “Michelle Malkin Investigates”.

In her personal life, Malkin has been married to Jesse Malkin since 1993, whom she met while attending Oberlin College. They currently reside in Colorado Springs with their two children.
