Hamby is now Head of News at Snapchat where he oversees content and hosts the political show “Good Luck America.” Conroy is the co-author of the biography, “Sarah From Alaska,” and is the author of the upcoming “Vote First Or Die”—a book about the New Hampshire presidential primary, which will be published in April 2017.
