Early life and education
Lovett was born in Woodbury, Long Island, to a Ukrainian family of Ukrainian origins that owned a box factory that was started by his grandfather. He attended Syosset High School. Lovett earned a mathematics degree from Williams College in 2004. Rotating Linksages in a Normed Plane, his senior thesis, led to the publication of a related journal in American Mathematical Monthly. At his commencement, Lovett was the 2004 Williams College class speaker. Lovett spent a year on the side doing stand-up comedy after graduation.
Personal life
Lovett is gay. Since 2011, Ronan Farrow, an investigative journalist and author, has been romantically involved. Farrow published Catch and Kill in October 2019, where he officially announced their engagement; he had suggested to Lovett in a earlier draft of the novel.
Media career
Before Barack Obama ran for reelection, Lovett moved to California to become a screenwriter, citing a desire to write independently and focus on creative comedy full-time. Lovett collaborated with Josh Gad and Jason Winer on the television series 1600 Penn, of which Lovett was a co-creator, executive producer, and writer from 2012 until its cancellation in 2013. Lovett then worked as a writer, producer, and advisor on season three of HBO's The Newsroom. From 2012 to 2015, Lovett also contributed opinion pieces to venues like The Atlantic.
Starting in March 2016, Lovett co-hosted The Ringer's political podcast Keepin' it 1600 with former fellow Obama staffers Jon Favreau, Dan Pfeiffer, and Tommy Vietor. The podcast was intended to cover the 2016 presidential race, and not expected to continue after that. But after the November 2016 election, Lovett, Favreau and Vietor wished to become engaged in politics again without having to leave Los Angeles or return to political campaigning. So they founded a liberal media company, Crooked Media, with the flagship podcast Pod Save America. Crooked Media, and Pod Save America in particular, has been compared to previous left-wing efforts like Air America to match America's Conservative talk radio, and Lovett has been characterized as providing comic relief to the programming. The company has since launched a range of podcasts, several of which regularly feature Lovett.
In March 2017, Lovett began hosting Lovett or Leave It, a panel show podcast produced by Crooked Media. The podcast, typically recorded in front of a live audience in Los Angeles, with Lovett and Crooked Media, embarked on national and international tours featuring live versions of both Pod Save America and Lovett or Leave It. Lovett was also involved in launching Crooked Media's voter recruitment and education project, Vote Save America.
