Rob Barry’s Biography

I’m an investigative reporter with The Wall Street Journal. I specialize in computer-assisted reporting, which is the practice of wrestling large sets of data into compelling narratives.

I’ve reported on topics ranging from insider trading to foreign and domestic elections to student loans. Previously, I worked at The Miami Herald, where I was significantly more likely to be wearing flip-flops.
