He was later the deputy editor at The New York Observer.

Stewart has written for various magazines, including The New York Times Magazine, GQ, New York, The Paris Review, Harper's and Wired, among others.

He is the author of Hunting the Tiger, a definitive portrait of one of the Balkans most dangerous men during the region's wars in the 1990s.[6] His second book, Jungleland, is about a lost city in Central America and an American spy who claimed that he'd found it.[7]

He lives in New York. Stewart is the co-author of the upcoming book Drone Warrior about the life of Brett Velicovich, which received CIA approval in 2016. The book has been optioned by Paramount Pictures for a biographical film to be produced by Michael Bay.[8]

gollark: Very "useful".
gollark: It would be "useful" if it used Linux or something and could thus do networking, control keys and stuff.
