He lives in Berkeley, California, with his wife, the novelist Ayelet Waldman, and their children. The Yiddish Policemen's Union is at once a gripping whodunit, a love story, an homage to 1940s noir, and an exploration of the mysteries of exile and redemption, The Yiddish Policemen's Union is a novel only Michael Chabon could have written.

Andrei Cherny's book, The Candy Bombers: The Untold Story of the Berlin Airlift and America's Finest Hour tells the story of how a small group of Americans, with few resources and against all expectations, fed half of one of the largest cities in the world by air for more than a year, thereby avoiding World War III, winning the hearts of our defeated enemies, and inspiring people around the world to believe in America's fundamental goodness. Cherny is co-founder and co-editor of Democracy: A Journal of Ideas, a quarterly journal of serious progressive thought that seeks to spur new ideas on the big challenges of the 21st century, and was named "Best New Publication" from a field of 700 magazines by the Utne Independent Press Awards. Cherny has provided policy and strategy advice to Bill Clinton, John Kerry, Al Gore, Harry Reid, Cabinet members, Governors, United States Senators, members of the House of Representatives, national labor unions, Fortune 100 CEOs, and prominent civic leaders.
