Ann Hart Coulter (; born December 8, 1961) is an American conservative social and political commentator, writer, syndicated columnist, and lawyer. She frequently appears on television, radio, and as a speaker at public and private events. Coulter rose to prominence in the 1990s as an outspoken critic of the Clinton administration. Her first book concerned the Bill Clinton impeachment, and sprang from her experience writing legal briefs for Paula Jones's attorneys, as well as columns she wrote about the cases.〔 〕 Coulter has described herself as a polemicist who likes to "stir up the pot", and does not "pretend to be impartial or balanced, as broadcasters do",〔 drawing criticism from the left, and sometimes from the right. Coulter's syndicated column for Universal Press Syndicate began appearing in newspapers, and was featured on major conservative websites. ==Early life== Ann Hart Coulter was born on December 8, 1961 in New York City, to John Vincent Coulter (1926–2008), an FBI agent of Irish-German heritage,〔Smolenyak, Megan. 〕 who was a native of Albany, New York, and Nell Husbands Coulter (née Martin; died 2009), a native of Paducah, Kentucky.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ann Coulter - January 9, 2008 - JOHN VINCENT COULTER )〕〔("NELL HUSBANDS MARTIN COULTER" ). ''humanevents.com''. April 2009.〕 All eight of her paternal great-great-grandparents were immigrants.〔 Her family later moved to New Canaan, Connecticut, where Coulter and her two older brothers, James and John, were raised. She graduated from New Canaan High School in 1980. Coulter's age was disputed in 2002 while she was arguing that she was not yet 40, yet ''Washington Post'' columnist Lloyd Grove cited that she provided a birthdate of December 8, 1961, when registering to vote in New Canaan, Connecticut prior to the 1980 Presidential election. Meanwhile, a driver's license issued several years later allegedly listed her birthdate as December 8, 1963. Coulter will not confirm either date, citing privacy concerns. While attending Cornell University, Coulter helped found ''The Cornell Review'',〔''The Cornell Review'': (Coulter ‘84 Denied Invitation by Fordham ). December 4, 2012.〕〔''The Nation'': (A Once-Bright Star Dims. ) January 30, 2003.〕 and was a member of the Delta Gamma national sorority. She graduated ''cum laude'' from Cornell in 1984 with a B.A. in history, and received her J.D. from the University of Michigan Law School in 1988, where she was an editor of the ''Michigan Law Review''.〔"(Ann Coulter: bestselling author and political commentator ) (Profile)".
