Hope Hicks Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

In the past few days Hope Hicks has found herself at the center of one of the most-watched legal dramas in America. On Friday November 7th as reported by CBS News and PBS NewsHour Hope Hicks took the stand as a prosecution witness in the New York criminal trial of former president Donald Trump. The proceeding focuses on alleged hush money payments made to silence claims of extramarital affairs during the 2016 campaign. Hicks detailed exactly how the campaign scrambled to deal with revelations about Trump’s alleged affairs and how the crisis team, which included Hicks herself, fielded media inquiries when the notorious Access Hollywood tape surfaced. According to PBS NewsHour Hicks was the first to be warned about the impending Washington Post story on that tape and helped coordinate the initial response, which included denial statements provided to news organizations even as jurors have now heard contrasting testimony in court.

Her testimony further exposed inner campaign communications, including contacts with then-American Media Inc. head David Pecker and attorney Michael Cohen, painting a picture of frantic efforts to suppress damaging headlines. She admitted to relaying denials to the media that insiders now acknowledge were untrue. This in-court appearance marks Hicks’ highest-profile public role in years and likely cements her as a star witness in a case of historic significance. There have been no public business launches or other verified appearances from Hicks this week, and major outlets including Spreaker and ABC report she has kept an extremely low public profile outside the trial itself.

Last summer Hicks took over as chief operating officer of Devil May Care Media, Megyn Kelly’s independent podcast and media venture. She has taken on responsibility for overseeing rapid business expansion, although no new business announcements or media interviews have surfaced this week. Though speculation about her next moves runs rampant on social platforms there are no verified recent social media posts directly from Hicks or bearing her direct comment since her court appearance.

Her testimony Friday is likely to have lasting implications. As both a longtime Trump loyalist and a firsthand witness to campaign crisis management, Hicks is uniquely situated—her perspective in court could impact both historical record and legal outcomes for those at the top of American politics.
