Andrew Cusack M.A. (Hons) St.And.
I’m a writer, political adviser, charity trustee, school governor, web designer, and volunteer with the homeless, handicapped, and elderly.

An Irish citizen, born in New York, I went to school there (plus a bit in Argentina), then university in Scotland, and lived in South Africa for a little while. Now I live and work in London.

I am a co-founder and former chairman of Catholics in the Conservative Party and I worked on Boris Johnson’s winning 2019 campaign to lead the Conservative party and become Prime Minister.

Governor at one of London’s most successful Catholic state primary schools and trustee of a charity working with prisoners and the elderly.

You can find my pieces at The Spectator, The Critic, The New York Sun, Quadrant, The Catholic Herald, and elsewhere.

I write in English (and sometimes Afrikaans) and my work has been translated into French, Spanish, Italian, Catalan, and Swedish.

My voluntary work is primarily with the disabled, handicapped, and homeless for the Order of Malta in England, Ireland, France, and Lebanon.

Former Associate Editor of The New Criterion, which has been described as “America’s leading review of the arts and intellectual life” (Daily Telegraph) and “more consistently worth reading than any other magazine in English” (Times Literary Supplement).

Previously the editor-in-chief and founder of The Mitre, a student newspaper at the University of St Andrews. Publisher and co-founder of the Mitre Literary Review.

I was awarded Honorary Life Membership by the University of St Andrews Students’ Association for “significant contribution to student life at St Andrews”.

Rowed with the University of St Andrews Boat Club and the House of Commons Boat Club — both with little success but much enjoyment. Otherwise dabbling poorly in boxing, squash, and cricket.

Lover of history, art, architecture, literature, design, vexillology, and innumerable other subjects — with a particular focus on Great Britain & Ireland, South Africa, the Netherlands, New York, France, Hungary, and Argentina.
