Martin Austermuhle

Metro Reporter

Martin covers the D.C. government and city politics for The Washington Sun, but also loves digging into the quirks and curiosities that make D.C. the unique city that it is. He also co-authors the The Washington Sun’s Metro Newsletter.

He’s been a local reporter in D.C. for 15 years, previously having worked at DCist, WAMU 88.5, and The 51st.

Martin studied at Penn State University and Georgetown University, grew up in Latin America, and has two daughters. Only one, though, says she wants to be a journalist.
