Harry Enten Biography
Harry Enten is an American anchor and reporter working for CNN as a Senior Political Data Reporter. He joined the CNN news team in March 2018, after previously working for ESPN.
He works for CNN Politics as a top writer and analyst. The Columbia Journalism Review said he was part of a new breed of political reporters who focused on data-driven reporting instead of covering campaigns. Nate Silver hired Enten as one of the first people when FiveThirtyEight started up again under ESPN. The other two were Carl Bialik and Walter Hickey. He mostly wrote about politics for FiveThirtyEight, but he also wrote about the weather sometimes. Along with host Jody Avirgan and co-hosts Nate Silver and Clare Malone, Enten was also one of the hosts of the FiveThirtyEight politics show.
He announced on February 5, 2018, that he was leaving FiveThirtyEight to become a senior political writer and expert for CNN’s Politics team. Moreover, their podcast, The Forecast Fest, ran from April 2019 to March 2020. In addition, it was made by Kate Bolduan, John Avlon, and Harry Enten. It was about the 2020 White House race in the United States.
Enten got his Phi Beta Kappa and magna cum laude degrees from Dartmouth College in 2011. He at least partly decided to go to Dartmouth because New Hampshire had the first primary in the country. Enten started a blog called Margin of Error and did an internship at the NBC News Political Unit in Washington, D.C. He used to work as a reporter for The Guardian before he started working for FiveThirtyEight.

Harry Enten Uncle
Enten has an uncle named Neil Sedaka, an American singer, songwriter, and pianist. Sedaka studied at Abraham Lincoln High School and graduated with a diploma when he was 17 years old, in 1956. In 1962, he got married to Leba Strassberg. They have a son named Marc and a daughter named Dara. Dara is a music artist and commercial singer for TV and radio. She sang the female lead on Sedaka’s 1980 Billboard Top 20 hit duet “Should’ve Never Let You Go” and “Angel Queen” from the Queen Millennium soundtrack. Moreover, Marc writes scripts for movies and lives in Los Angeles with his wife Samantha, and their three kids.
On his iTunes Originals record, American singer-songwriter Ben Folds said that Sedaka inspired him to become a song publisher. Folds set a similar goal when he heard that Sedaka had a song published by the time he was 13. Sedaka, on the other hand, didn’t print until he was 16. In 1985, songs that Sedaka had written were used in the Japanese cartoon TV show Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam.
The first two themes were “Zeta-Toki wo Koete” (based on Sedaka’s “Better Days Are Coming”) and “Mizu no Hoshi e Ai wo Komete” (originally in English as “For Us to Decide” but never recorded), and the last theme was “Hoshizora no Believe” (based on Sedaka’s “Bad and Beautiful”). Because of copyright laws, the songs had to be changed for the North American DVD and Japanese online versions of the show until 2017.
Sedaka voiced Neil Moussaka, a character based on himself, in Food Rocks in 1994. Food Rocks was an attraction at Epcot from 1994 to 2006. Broken Up Is Hard to Do is a musical comedy based on songs by Neil Sedaka. It was written by Erik Jackson and Ben H. Winters in 2005 and is now licensed to Theatrical Rights Worldwide. However, Bill Kenwright and Laurie Mansfield directed the biographical musical Laughter in the Rain, which had its world premiere on March 4, 2010, at the Churchill Theatre in the London borough of Bromley. Wayne Smith played Sedaka. Sedaka went to the opening and sang the title song with the group during an unplanned curtain call.
In 1983, Sedaka was admitted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. He also has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and was inducted into the Long Island Music Hall of Fame in October 2006. Pacific Pioneer Broadcasters in Los Angeles gave him the Art Gilmore Career Achievement Award at a dinner on November 15, 2013. Near the end of the second season of the Fox TV show American Idol in May 2003, Sedaka joined the five remaining finalists as a guest judge and coach. Moreover, the winner in third place was Kimberley Locke, who sang “Theme from Where the Boys Are” by Sedaka and Greenfield.
Harvey Lisberg, a Hugh Lisberg fan, asked Don Kirshner if he had written anything new while he was in New York for work in the middle of 1971. Kirshner led Lisberg to a small room with a piano where Sedaka was already sitting. Lisberg played a few songs on the piano. “(Is This the Way to) Amarillo?” by Sedaka and Greenfield was one of them. Moreover, Lisberg loved it and gave it to his artist Tony Christie to record and release in 1971. The song did pretty well on the UK Singles Chart; it made it to the Top 20. Additionally, in March 2021, Sedaka had surgery to remove a benign skin growth from his nose.
