Career

After graduating from Yale University with a B.A. in political science in 1958, Hoge began his journalistic career with the Chicago Sun-Times; during this period, he received an M.A. in history from the University of Chicago in 1961 and served as a Congressional Fellow of the American Political Science Association (1962–1963). After serving as Washington, D.C. correspondent (1963–1965), city editor (1965–1967) and managing editor (1967–1968) of the Sun-Times, he was promoted to editor in chief in 1968. From 1976 to 1976, he concurrently served as editor in chief of the Sun-Times's sister publication, the Chicago Daily News. In 1980, he attended the six-week Harvard Business School Advanced Management Program, and relinquished his editorial duties, continuing as the newspaper's publisher. He left the Sun-Times in 1984 and was appointed president and publisher of the New York Daily News, where he remained until 1991. The Sun-Times won six Pulitzer Prizes during his tenure there, and the Daily News won one during his presidency.

Following fellowships at the Harvard Institute of Politics (1991) and the Freedom Forum Media Studies Center at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism (1992), he was appointed editor of Foreign Affairs in 1992, replacing William G. Hyland. During his tenure, the magazine doubled its circulation and launched Spanish, Japanese and Russian editions. He was succeeded by Gideon Rose in 2010. Currently, he is a senior advisor in Teneo's intelligence division.

He has previously served as the chair of the Pulitzer Prize Board, Human Rights Watch and the Foundation for a Civil Society, and is the vice chair of the International Center for Journalists.
