Hi, I’m a New York-based staff reporter for The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists.

My latest project was the Paradise Papers — a trove of 13.4 million documents leaked mostly from the offshore law firm Appleby. Here are my stories from that project: 

—How Business Titans, Pop Stars and Royals Hide Their Wealth (New York Times)

—Kremlin-owned Firms Linked to Major Investments in Twitter and Facebook (ICIJ)

—Major U.S. Political Donors Play The Offshore Game (ICIJ)

—Inside the Secret World of Offshore Mega-Trusts (ICIJ)

—The Vast Offshore Web of Trump's Inner Circle (ICIJ & Pulitzer Center)

I’ve also written for The Guardian, Rolling Stone, The Intercept, Slate, The New Republic, VICE and The Nation Institute’s Investigative Fund.

My reporting has covered a variety of things, including Ivanka and Donald Trump's Chinese garment factories, a capital murder case in Mississippi, pretrial detention in Chicago, electioneering on Alaskan oilfields, Palantir powering CBP and ICE’s surveillance capabilities, ICE’s use of solitary confinement, ex-felons seeking voting rights in Florida, and the prosecution of voting activists in Georgia. I’ve also translated love letters from Chinese.

I worked for a few years as a researcher and fact-checker for places like the New York Times, Fast Company and The Intercept, where I worked extensively with the Edward Snowden trove and was on the research team for the Drone Papers series.

I post on Twitter sometimes. You can DM me there or email me at spencer.woodman@gmail.com
