She joined The New York Times in 2003 as Arts & Leisure editor, revamping the section and helping lead a makeover of the culture report. The recipient of a Columbia Young Alumni Achievement Award, Ms. Kantor has also been named by Crain's New York Business magazine as one of "40 Under 40." She appears regularly on television, including The Today Show and Charlie Rose. Though she is a Washington correspondent, she lives in Brooklyn with her husband and daughter.
