Nominated for the Pulitzer Prize at age 15, Jett James Pruitt is a bestselling author, political strategist, and founder/editor-in-chief of the political news website, TheGenZPost.com.

Born in 2005 and raised by a single Native American (Taino Arawak) mother in New York City, Jett's unique interest in politics began at the age of nine, blossoming with the 2016 presidential election. At the age of 14, he founded the political news website TheGenZPost.com and became one of the U.S. Press Association’s youngest members in history.

Jett's very first book THROUGH THE EYES OF A YOUNG AMERICAN was published days after his fifteenth birthday. It reached Amazon's Top 20 Bestsellers in Politics and was nominated by his publisher for the 2021 Pulitzer Prize.

Pruitt is a registered tribal member of the United Confederation of Taino People (UCTP), the Indigenous Journalists Association, and The Authors Guild Union. He also enjoys being a teenager once in a while — working out at the gym, watching movies with friends, and traveling abroad.

In addition, Pruitt is a first-year B.A. in International Politics student at the prestigious University of London Institute in Paris, and enjoys visiting his family in Palm Beach, Florida over the holidays. He looks forward to publishing more books while in college, attending a powerhouse graduate school, and ultimately working in Washington, D.C. or Europe in the areas of politics, international relations, and journalism.

His highly-anticipated second book — THE PROGRESSIVE CONSERVATIVE: What America's Political Parties Must Do To Win Over Generation Z — is due for worldwide release in early 2025.
