In addition to his media career, Halperin is a published author. In 2010, he co-authored the best-selling book "Game Change: Obama and the Clintons, McCain and Palin, and the Race of a Lifetime" with political journalist John Heilemann. The book, which provided an inside look into the 2008 U.S. presidential campaign, was adapted into an HBO film titled "Game Change." The movie premiered in March 2012, featuring Halperin in a cameo role as a reporter.
The duo followed up with "Double Down: Game Change 2012" in 2013, covering the 2012 U.S. presidential election. Both books were praised for their detailed reporting and in-depth analysis of electoral politics.
Halperin has also participated in civic engagement initiatives. In 2006, he joined the board of the New Hampshire Institute of Politics at Saint Anselm College in Goffstown, New Hampshire. He continues to be involved in supporting political discourse and education through his board service.
In 2017, Halperin faced multiple allegations of sexual harassment from five women, stemming from his time at ABC News. He issued a public apology for pursuing “relationships with women that I worked with, including some junior to me,” while denying the more serious accusations. As a result of the controversy, various media organizations severed ties with him.
Halperin is in a relationship with writer and editor Karen Avrich. The couple resides in New York City. Despite professional setbacks, Halperin has continued to write and engage in media projects.
