Malcolm Gladwell (born September 3, 1963) is an American-based journalist who has been a staff writer for The New Yorker since 1996. He is best known as the author of the bestseller The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference.

Gladwell, whose mother is Jamaican, was born in England. He was raised in Canada, and graduated with a degree in history from the University of Toronto in 1984. From 1987 to 1996, he was a science writer, and later the New York bureau chief, for the Washington Post. Gladwell currently lives in New York City.

In 2005, Gladwell published his second book, Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking. His writing often deals with the unexpected implications of research in the social sciences, particularly sociology and psychology.
