Jonathan Saul Freedland is a British journalist, who writes for The Guardian. He is the son of Michael Freedland, the biographer and journalist.

Educated at Oxford University, he started his "Fleet Street" career at the short-lived Sunday Correspondent. More recently he contributed to The Daily Mirror during its attempt to move upmarket. As well as his weekly column in The Guardian, he pens a monthly piece for the Jewish Chronicle. He also presents BBC Radio 4’s contemporary history series, The Long View.

Author of Bring Home the Revolution: How Britain Can Live the American Dream published in 1998, an argument in favour of the UK adopting a Republican constitution. Freedland has been instrumental in The Guardian's adopting a more anti-monarchical attitude in recent years.

March 2005 will see the publication of a new book, Jacob's Gift — a memoir telling the stories of three generations of his own family as well as exploring wider and urgent questions of identity and belonging.
