Elizabeth Jean Carroll (born December 12, 1943) is an American journalist, author, and advice columnist. Her "Ask E. Jean" column appeared in Elle magazine from 1993 through 2019, becoming one of the longest-running advice columns in American publishing. She was the first female contributing editor for Playboy.

In her 2019 book, What Do We Need Men For?: A Modest Proposal, Carroll accused Les Moonves and Donald Trump of sexually assaulting her in the mid-1990s. Both Moonves and Trump denied the allegations. A trial concerning Carroll's accusations against Trump is scheduled for April 2023.

Early life

Elizabeth Jean Carroll was born on December 12, 1943, in Detroit, Michigan. She also went by "Jeannie". Her father, Thomas F. "Tom" Carroll, Jr., was an inventor, and her mother, Betty (née McKinney) Carroll, was a retired Allen County, Indiana politician. Carroll was raised in Fort Wayne, Indiana and attended Indiana University. A Pi Beta Phi and a cheerleader, she was crowned Miss Indiana University in 1963, and in 1964, as a representative of the university, she won the Miss Cheerleader USA title. She appeared on To Tell The Truth in 1965.

Career

Column: Ask E. Jean

Carroll's "Ask E. Jean" column appeared in Elle from 1993 until 2020. Widely read, it was acclaimed for Carroll's opinions on sex, her insistence that women should "never never" structure their lives around men, and her compassion for letter-writers experiencing difficult life situations. When it debuted, Amy Gross, a former editor-in-chief of Elle, compared the column to putting Carroll on a "bucking bronco", describing her responses to readers as "the cheers and whoops and hollers of a fearless woman having a good ol' time."

Carroll was fired from Elle in February 2020; she wrote on Twitter that she was dismissed "Because Trump ridiculed my reputation, laughed at my looks, & dragged me through the mud." Elle maintained that the decision to fire Carroll was a business decision unrelated to Trump.

Television: Ask E. Jean, Saturday Night Live

Carroll wrote for Saturday Night Live in the mid-1980s. She was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Writing in a Variety or Music Program in 1987.

From 1994 through 1996, NBC's America's Talking—the predecessor to MSNBC—aired Ask E. Jean, a television series that Carroll produced. Entertainment Weekly called Carroll "the most entertaining cable talk show host you will never see." Carroll and the show were nominated for a CableACE Award in 1995.

Magazines, books, and anthologies

In addition to writing for magazines including The Atlantic and Vanity Fair, Carroll served as a contributing editor for Outside, Esquire and Playboy. She was Playboy's first female contributing editor.

Carroll was known for her gonzo-style first-person narratives. She hiked into the Star Mountains with an Atbalmin tracker and a Telefomin warrior; chronicled the lives of basketball groupies in a story called "Love in the Time of Magic"; and went to Indiana to investigate why four white farm kids were thrown out of school for dressing like black artists in "The Return of the White Negro". She tracked down her old boyfriends and moved in with them and their wives and went on a camping trip with Fran Lebowitz. Bill Tonelli, her Esquire and Rolling Stone editor, said in a 1999 interview that all of Carroll's stories were "pretty much the same thing. Which is: 'What is this person like when he or she is in a room with E. Jean?' She's institutionally incapable of being uninteresting."

Several of Carroll's pieces have been included in non-fiction anthologies such as The Best of Outside: The First 20 Years (Vintage Books, 1998), Out of the Noosphere: Adventure, Sports, Travel, and the Environment (Fireside, 1998) and Sand in My Bra: Funny Women Write from the Road (Traveler's Tales, 2003). Her 2002 story for Spin, "The Cheerleaders" was selected as one of the year's "Best True Crime Reporting" pieces. It appeared in Best American Crime Writing, edited by Otto Penzler, Thomas H. Cook, and Nicholas Pileggi (Pantheon Books, 2002).

In 1993, Carroll's biography of Hunter S. Thompson, Hunter: The Strange and Savage Life of Hunter S. Thompson, was published by Dutton. Her memoir, What Do We Need Men For?: A Modest Proposal was released in June 2019. The title refers to the 1729 satire A Modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift. In 2019, The New York Times referred to Carroll as "feminism's answer to Hunter S. Thompson."

In the late summer and fall of 2020 and the winter of 2021, Carroll published a series about the women who came forward to accuse Donald Trump of sexual misbehavior for The Atlantic, profiling Natasha Stoynoff, Karena Virginia, Jessica Leeds, Alva Johnson and Kristin Anderson. Vanity Fair published Carroll's profile of Jill Harth. This American Life featured her in conversation with Jessica Leeds.

Online

In 2002, Carroll co-founded greatboyfriends.com with her sister, Cande Carroll. On the site, women recommended their ex-boyfriends to each other. GreatBoyfriends was acquired by The Knot Inc. in 2005. In 2004, she launched Catch27.com, a spoof of Facebook. On the site, people put their profiles on trading cards and bought, sold, and traded each other. She launched an online version of her column, askejean.com, in 2007. Ten years later Carroll co-founded Tawkify, "a personal concierge" for dating." She also advised Tawkify's matchmaking team.

Sexual assault allegations

Les Moonves

Carroll was one of 13 women who accused CBS Corporation executive Les Moonves of sexual assault in 2019. She says the incident occurred in the late 1990s in a hotel elevator after interviewing Moonves for a story; he denied the allegation.

Donald Trump

On June 21, 2019, prior to the release of her book, What Do We Need Men For?: A Modest Proposal, Carroll wrote in New York magazine that Donald Trump had sexually assaulted her in late 1995 or early 1996 in the Bergdorf Goodman department store in New York City. Her book contained details of the alleged incident. Carroll said that on her way out of the store she ran into Trump and he asked for help buying a gift for a woman. After suggesting a handbag or a hat, the two reputedly moved on to the lingerie section and joked about the other trying some on. Carroll said they ended up a dressing room together, the door of which was shut, and Trump forcefully kissed her, pulled down her tights and raped her before she was able to escape. She stated that the alleged incident lasted less than three minutes. Lisa Birnbach and Carol Martin told New York magazine that Carroll had confided with them after the alleged assault.

Trump denied the allegations, saying that Carroll was "totally lying". He said: "I'll say it with great respect: Number one, she's not my type. Number two, it never happened. It never happened, OK?" He also claimed that he had never met her, although Carroll provided New York a photograph of her socializing with Trump in 1987. Trump dismissed the photograph's significance, saying, "Standing with my coat on in a line — give me a break — with my back to the camera. I have no idea who she is."

Carroll chose not to describe the alleged sexual assault as rape, instead describing it as a fight. "My word is fight. My word is not the victim word ... I fought."

Defamation lawsuit

In addition to other comments denying Carroll's accusation, Trump stated in a June 2019 interview with The Hill that Carroll was "totally lying" and that he knew "nothing about her". He also said that she was "not his type" and implied that her allegation was politically and financially motivated.

In November 2019, Carroll filed a defamation lawsuit with the New York Supreme Court. The suit states that Trump had damaged her reputation, substantially harmed her professionally, and caused emotional pain. After it was filed, White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham stated, "The lawsuit is frivolous and the story is a fraud—just like the author."

In January 2020, Carroll's attorneys served a request for a DNA sample from Trump for "analysis and comparison against unidentified male DNA present" on a black dress she said she was wearing when the alleged assault occurred. In December 2020, Carroll said she was willing to delay collecting the sample and testimony from Trump in exchange for earlier access to other relevant records. Trump's DNA was still being sought as of February 2022, though Trump lawyer Alina Habba claimed that no sample had been requested. In February 2023, Trump's lawyer Joe Tacopina said Trump would provide his DNA as long as certain pages regarding a DNA report on the dress were first provided.

In September 2020, government lawyers from the Department of Justice (DOJ) asserted that Trump had acted in his official capacity while responding to Carroll's accusation; they asserted that the Federal Tort Claims Act grants their department the right to take the case from Trump's private lawyers and move it to federal court. A White House official also argued that the aforementioned act provides precedent for the government to exercise this right. This would end the lawsuit, as the government cannot be sued for defamation. Carroll's lawyer, Roberta A. Kaplan, stated that "Trump's effort to wield the power of the U.S. government to evade responsibility for his private misconduct is without precedent." In October 2020, U.S. District Court Judge Lewis Kaplan (not related) rejected the DOJ's motion, arguing that the president is not a government employee and that Trump's comments were not related to his job as such. The following month, the DOJ filed an appeal with the Second Circuit Court of Appeals.

In June 2021 (during the Biden administration), the DOJ argued to the Second Circuit appeals court that DOJ lawyers should defend Trump as a federal employee, stating, "Speaking to the public and the press on matters of public concern is undoubtedly part of an elected official's job." On September 27, 2022, the appeals court ruled that "we cannot say what the District would do" in terms of allowing Trump to be shielded by his former office as U.S. president. Habba praised the ruling as a reversal of the District Court's stance (that the comments were not executive business). On October 19, Trump was deposed as a witness in the case. In January 2023, the District of Columbia (D.C.) appeals court held oral arguments before a full panel of judges. Trump's lawyers argued that his comments fell within the scope of his employment, while some judges pointed out that D.C. law holds employers responsible when their employees cause individuals harm in the scope of their employment but not otherwise. Judge Catharine F. Easterly noted that employer liability cases usually have a trial record and jury verdict to refer to, while Judge John P. Howard questioned whether further fact-finding was warranted. The trial was scheduled to begin in February.

On January 31, Joe Tacopina became Trump's lead lawyer in the case, leading Carroll's lawyer to assert that Habba and her partner were withdrawing, which she and Tacopina denied.

Expansion to battery claim

In September 2022, Carroll's lawyer wrote to Judge Kaplan that she planned to file a new case against Trump, taking advantage of New York's new law (passed the previous May) which will briefly allow sexual assault victims to file civil suits regardless of expired statutes of limitations. According to Kaplan, Trump's deposition in the defamation suit may also be cited in the sexual assault case. On November 24, the day the state law came into effect, Carroll sued Trump for battery and made a renewed claim of defamation, citing statements made by Trump in October. Carroll's lawyer proposed a trial date of April 10, 2023. Lawyers for Trump said in a December 19 court filing that they would request a dismissal of the lawsuit partially on the basis that the New York law is invalid due to its allegedly contradicting the state's constitution regarding due process. On December 21, Judge Kaplan dismissed a request to delay the trial until the end of 2023 and set a date of April 17. On January 13, 2023, Kaplan denied the request to dismiss the lawsuit, which Habba said the defense intended to "immediately appeal".

On January 9, 2023, Kaplan ruled that transcripts of Trump's deposition could be released, but granted Trump's lawyers their request to keep the documents sealed for another three days while they made their case against unsealing them. The transcripts were released on January 13. In them, Trump reiterated previous arguments, defended his past statements, called Carroll a "nut job" and alleged that she had "said it was very sexy to be raped". He further threatened to sue both Carroll and Kaplan after the proceedings were complete. When shown the photograph of Carroll socializing with Trump in 1987, Trump thought the former was his ex-wife Marla Maples until Habba righted him. Additionally, Trump asserted that the suit was an attempt to sabotage his 2024 presidential campaign, stating, "this is the way you defeat , to keep busy with litigation." He also accused Carroll and her lawyer of being "somehow aligned with Hillary Clinton", based on "somebody mentioned it."

In February, Judge Kaplan denied a request to delay the trial to June, instead scheduling it for April 25. He also said he had made no decision about whether Carroll's two related suits would be consolidated. Trump and Carroll are expected to be called as witnesses, as well as those Carroll said she told about the incident, and others. On February 10, Tacopina indicated that Trump may provide a DNA sample, stating, "Mr. Trump's DNA is either on the dress or it is not."

Personal life

Carroll resides around Warwick, New York. She was formerly married to reporter John Johnson.
