Harry Rosenfeld
From Kristallnacht to Watergate:
Memoirs of a Newspaperman
Thursday, February 6, 2 – 3 p.m.
In his powerful and riveting memoir,
Harry Rosenfeld
describes his life,
from growing up in Hitler’s Berlin to
finding refuge in America to his years
as an editor at the
New York Herald
Tribune
and
The Washington Post
.
As
The Post’s
Metropolitan editor,
Rosenfeld managed Bob Woodward
and Carl Bernstein as they broke
the Watergate story. He oversaw the
paper’s standard-setting coverage that
eventually earned it the Pulitzer Prize
Gold Medal for Public Service.
At a time when newspapers and other
media are under financial pressure to
cut back on investigative reporting,
From Kristallnacht to Watergate
reminds us why journalism matters,
and why good journalism is essential
to our democracy.
