Tracy was one of the country's top track runners as a high school student. She recorded a 4:44.7 mile while competing for the Cindergals Running Club (San Jose) and Lynbrook High School in California.
She graduated from University of California, Berkeley with a B.A. and M.A. in Journalism in 1989. She was a reporter for the Orange County Register and the Los Angeles Times.
With the Times in 2004, Weber and Charles Ornstein covered "the Trouble at King/Drew" hospital in a series of articles. They shared the 2005 Pulitzer Prize for Public Service citing "courageous, exhaustively researched series exposing deadly medical problems and racial injustice at a major public hospital." The series was recognized by other journalism awards, too.
Another series by Ornstein and Weber, "When Caregivers Harm: California's Unwatched Nurses" in 2009, was a finalist for the Public Service Pulitzer. The citation recognized LA Times and ProPublica for "their exposure of gaps in California’s oversight of dangerous and incompetent nurses, blending investigative scrutiny and multimedia storytelling to produce corrective changes."
Weber is married, with two children.
