==Early life and family==
Remnick was born in Hackensack, New Jersey, the son of a dentist, Edward C. Remnick, and an art teacher, Barbara (Seigel).〔Coussin, Orna (February 9, 2006). ("How to put a legendary magazine back on its feet" ). ''Ha'aretz''.〕〔(Google books ). 〕 He was raised in Hillsdale, New Jersey, in a secular Jewish home with, he has said, "a lot of books around."〔Wood, Gaby (September 10, 2006). ("The quiet American" ). ''The Observer''. Retrieved April 10, 2011. "David Remnick was born in 1958 and grew up in Hillsdale, New Jersey, where his father was a dentist and his mother an art teacher."〕 He is also childhood friends with comedian Bill Maher. He attended Pascack Valley High School in Hillsdale where he studied the Russian language under the tutelage of Francis Falk, which fueled his interest in the Soviet Union and Russian studies.
He graduated from Princeton University in 1981 with an A.B. in comparative literature; there, he met writer John McPhee, was a member of the University Press Club, and helped found ''The Nassau Weekly''. Remnick has implied that after college he wanted to write novels, but due to his parents' illnesses, he needed a paying job as he had no trust fund to rely on.〔Bigthink Interview Series, YouTube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i87X_OE3Qac 〕 Remnick wanted to be a writer, so he chose a career in journalism, taking a job at ''The Washington Post''.
He is married to reporter Esther Fein of ''The New York Times'' and has three children, Alex, Noah, and Natasha.〔 He enjoys jazz music and classic cinema and is fluent in Russian.
