Today, we air a conversation with Pulitzer Prize author and reporter Tony Horowitz in an interview conducted about a week and a half ago talking about a sojourn into the deep South. Tony Horowitz unexpectedly died last Sunday potentially of a heart attack. He wrote extensively throughout his career about the Civil War, and the South relationship to today. His latest book Spying on the South: An Odyssey Across The American Divide is the main topic of our conversation today.
Guest: Tony was a native of Washington, D.C., and a graduate of Brown University and Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism. As a reporter he covered wars and conflict in the Middle East, Africa, and the Balkans for The Wall Street Journal. Returning to the U.S., he won the Pulitzer Prize for national reporting and wrote for The New Yorker before becoming a full-time author.
