Evan Koslof is an Emmy-award winning journalist and national political reporter in the Spectrum News Washington, D.C. bureau. Evan’s interest in journalism began when he was 11 years old, and he was assigned a book report on "James and the Giant Peach.” Evan likes to talk — a lot. So, his parents indulged him as he put together a mock newscast on the book. From there, Evan’s path was set: he would become a journalist.

After graduating with a B.A. in Journalism from The George Washington University, Evan began working as a reporter at WBOC in Delaware. He served as the Sussex County Bureau Chief, covering politics in southern Delaware for four years. He then moved to WUSA9, the CBS affiliate in Washington, D.C., where he spent seven years reporting on major political events, including presidential elections, inaugurations, government shutdowns, dozens of protests, and the January 6th insurrection. In October 2023, Evan joined the Spectrum News team, thrilled to continue pursuing his passion of reporting on politics and governance. He firmly believes in the maxim that "news is about people."

In addition to political reporting, Evan has covered three hurricanes, as well as the aftermath of mass shootings in Buffalo, Annapolis, and Washington, D.C. He also covered the World Series in Houston during the Nationals' championship run in 2019. Evan’s work has earned him eight Emmy Awards, four Associated Press Awards, and recognition as Best Local Reporter by the Washington Blade.

When he’s not working, Evan enjoys a drink with his husband at their local bar and playing pick-up basketball. He's also a big Boston sports fan and loves his Celtics and Patriots. Every year, he goes to a Pats away game with his mom — so if you have good stadium recommendations, be sure to share them with him!
