Education

Career
She worked as a teacher-librarian at the New York City Board of Education from 2003-2007. From 2008-2009, she joined ABC News as a News Librarian and researcher.
She then joined Champlain College from January 2011 to June 2011 as reference and instruction librarian. At the same time, she was working at Burlington Public Library.[7]
Before joining The Daily Beast, Zadrozny was a news librarian and researcher for Fox News Channel from December 2011 to May 2013.
Over the past year, she’s been getting noticed for research and reporting on Russia’s Internet Research Agency, uncovering the secret life of a pro-Trump, white nationalist school shooter and digging deep into Vice Media’s rampant culture of sexual harassment.
She’s also made frequent appearances on CNN or MSNBC explaining those stories.[7]
On Friday, the librarian-turned-senior researcher and writer announced she was leaving The Daily Beast after five years and moving to NBC News as a national reporter.
Zadrozny’s move to NBC — along with The Daily Beast’s senior news editor, tech reporter (and frequent reporting partner) Ben Collins — will allow her to break stories for a broader audience, at a medium where the White House is compelled to respond.[7]
During 2018, she’s been getting noticed for research and reporting on Russia’s Internet Research Agency, uncovering the secret life of a pro-Trump, white nationalist school shooter and digging deep into Vice Media's rampant culture of sexual harassment. She’s also made frequent appearances on CNN and MSNBC explaining those stories.[7]
