NewsBios tracks the comings and goings of influential journalists and compiles professionally reported biographical profiles on them. 

Our service is used primarily by PR people and senior corporate executives who feel more confident knowing the backgrounds of journalists who approach them for interviews or who they approach with news and feature ideas. NewsBios also reaches many journalists, including leading editors, who use the service in recruiting staff and for competitive analysis.

Because NewsBios has reported on the most important journalists for more than 22 years, we are viewed in many newsrooms as a kind of a Who's Who of Influential Journalists with more than 7,000 profiles on file representing every major American news outlet and many global news leaders. 

NewsBios include information on the public record and/or provided to our reporters directly by the journalists themselves. 

Our executive editor is Dean Rotbart, who got his start as a reporter and columnist at The Wall Street Journal.  Dean has been a media reporter for more than 20 years.  He oversees all reporting and is integral in making the selection of which journalists to include on our website.

Our selection criteria revolve around journalists -- both reporters and editors -- who we deem are helping to set the news agenda nationally and winning the respect and acknowledgement of peers, colleagues and story subjects alike.  We accept nominations for the inclusion of journalists from both the media and public relations profession.

Times TV Business Reporter Stelter
Among the Paper's 'Biggest Losers'

Brian Stelter, 25, covers television and digital media for The New York Times and writes for the TV Decoder blog on NYTimes.com. He is quite the wunderkind, having joined the newspaper as a staff reporter in 2007, at age 22.

 
In only one respect has Mr. Stelter diminished since joining The New York Times. Several months ago, he undertook the task of losing weight. To help him track his progress and keep him on the straight and increasingly narrow, he opened a second Twitter account.

When he began, Mr. Stelter weighed 270 lbs and now weighs less than 200 lbs. He wrote about this experience in a story Tall Tales, Truth and My Twitter Diet. It appeared on August 22, 2010 in the Times Week In Review section.

Pioneering WSJ Tech Reporter,
William M. "Bill " Bulkeley, Turns 60

Unlike so many of the tech and Internet companies that he once covered, pioneering tech reporter William M. Bulkeley is far from obsolete.

But on his 60th birthday, today, “Bill” Bulkeley serves as a reminder of just how rapidly tech-related industries have evolved – bringing journalists and news organizations along at warp drive speeds.

Bulkeley first started watching computer and other technology companies for The Wall Street in 1978 at age 28, reporting from its Boston bureau. He had already been with the paper for six years, having previously reported from Dallas, Detroit and Los Angeles.

When Bulkeley arrived in Boston, what we now know as the Internet did not yet exist and Polaroid and Raytheon were the best-known technology firms in the region.

Bulkeley helped invent the Journal’s coverage of technology and computers. On his watch over the next three decades, Boston would become a high-tech hub and then, amazingly, watch its status evaporate. Corporate stalwarts including Apollo, Bay Networks, Cabletron, Computer Vision, Digital Equipment, Data General, Lotus and Wang rocketed and then spiraled into oblivion.

The Journal’s Boston bureau, once known for its emphasis on banking and mutual funds companies, was transformed into a high-tech news hub and then, at the end of last year, shuttered altogether, leaving Bulkeley and most of his bureau colleagues out on their own.

AP reporter Harry R. Weber, now covering BP oil disaster, marks 10 years at newswire

BP’s Deepwater Horizon oil and gas spill in the Gulf of Mexico is arguably the biggest news event of the year and the biggest story of reporter Harry R. Weber’s career.

It seems fitting that Weber, 37, should get the call from The Associated Press to join its BP team coverage as he marks the 10th anniversary of his employment by the global news service.

Ordinarily a business writer based in Atlanta where he covers airlines and transportation, Weber has been contributing to the BP oil leak story since May 3rd, about two weeks after the initial explosion.

During that time Weber has covered both the business and technical aspects of the story, reporting from “on the Gulf of Mexico,” various locations in Louisiana and Houston.

Weber’s stories have explored the impact that the spill is having on BP employees in the U.S.; the “bumbling public-relations efforts” made by the British petroleum company; the potential impact on BP’s stock price and bottom line; and the various efforts to cap the leaking deepwater well.

Dancing with a journalism star, WNYC’s biz news editor Charles Herman turns 40 today

Sources and readers sometimes accuse journalists of tap dancing around a story. For WNYC Radio’s Charles “Charlie” Herman, who turns 40 today, that is probably a compliment.

Herman is a veteran broadcast journalist who earlier this year jumped to New York’s public radio station from ABC News, where he oversaw the Business News unit for the past five years.

Herman is now Business and Economics Editor for WNYC, working alongside the station’s news team and serving as a resource for its well-known local programs, including The Brian Lehrer Show, The Leonard Lopate Show, and The Takeaway.

As agile as Herman is as a journalist – he did tours of duty for ABC in Baghdad, Miami, Los Angeles and Washington D.C. – what many of his radio fans may not know is that Herman is a five-foot-nine tap dancing star.
