Andrea Eger is a Tulsa-based education and investigative reporter and a graduate of the University of Oklahoma, with minors in Spanish and political science.
After joining the Tulsa World in 1999, she distinguished herself with award-winning investigations that sparked criminal charges against an athletic director and numerous child sexual predators, a complete overhaul of alternative education offerings in Tulsa, leadership changes at school districts and state agencies, and parole revocation for a notorious convicted murderer. She also received accolades for exposing a series of unnatural deaths in state-run veterans’ nursing homes and questionable financial practices at Epic Charter Schools, which Oklahoma’s state auditor later declared the largest abuse of taxpayer funds “in the history of this state.” She has done freelance reporting for the Washington Post, USA Today and Education Writers Association.
She is a 2023 inductee of the Oklahoma Journalism Hall of Fame.
