More on Ken Auletta
Description from Wikipedia:
Ken Auletta (born April 23 1942) is an American writer, journalist and media critic for The New Yorker from Brooklyn, New York, the son of an Italian-American father and a Jewish-American mother. He has written the Annals of Communications column for 'The New Yorker since 1993. He is the author of ten books, including “Three Blind Mice: How the TV Networks Lost Their Way,” (1991), “Greed and Glory on Wall Street: The Fall of The House of Lehman,” (1986), “The Highwaymen: Warriors of the Information Superhighway,” (1997), and “World War 3.0: Microsoft and Its Enemies,” (2001). His book “Backstory: Inside the Business of News,” (2003) is a collection of his columns from The New Yorker. His most recent book, “Media Man: Ted Turner’s Improbable Empire,” was published in the fall of 2004.
Auletta was among the first to popularize the idea of the so-called information superhighway, with his February 22, 1993, New Yorker Profile of Barry Diller, in which described how Diller used his Apple PowerBook to anticipate his, and our, digital future. He has profiled the leading figures and companies of the Information Age, including Bill Gates, Rupert Murdoch, AOL Time Warner, John Malone, and the New York Times. His 2001 Profile of Ted Turner won a National Magazine Award.
Auletta has been named a Literary Lion by the New York Public Library. He has won numerous journalism awards, and was selected as one of the twentieth century’s top one hundred business journalists. He has served as a Pulitzer Prize juror, and for nearly two decades has been a judge of the annual Livingston Award for Young Journalists, one of the National Journalism Awards. He has twice served as a board member of PEN, and is a trustee of the Public Theatre/New York Shakespeare Festival.
Auletta lives in Manhattan. He is a graduate of Oswego State University (SUNY @ OSWEGO) where he was a member of Sigma Tau Chi Fraternity.
