About Lucian Wintrich

Lucian Baxter Wintrich IV is an American artist, photographer, writer, and media personality. He received widespread attention in 2017 as the White House correspondent for the conservative news and opinion site The Gateway Pundit. At age 28, he was one of the youngest members of the White House Press Corps, and among the first to be openly gay. During this time, Wintrich attracted significant controversy for his outspoken views on politics and culture. Many of his public appearances and art pieces have been met with protests ranging from civil disobedience to violent demonstrations. Wintrich organized and curated the "#DaddyWillSaveUs" art exhibition in late 2016, billed by Wintrich as the first conservative and pro-Trump art show in the United States. While in Washington, Wintrich became the public face of Gateway Pundit, generating press and news stories in other publications.
