Ethan Bronner (born 1954) was the Jerusalem bureau chief for The New York Times from 2008 to 2012, following four years as its deputy foreign editor. In mid-2012, he became the Times 's national legal affairs correspondent, based in New York[1]. Bronner served as assistant editorial page editor of the Times, and before that worked in the paper's investigative unit, focusing on the September 11 attacks. A series of articles on al Qaeda that Bronner helped edit during that time was awarded the 2001 Pulitzer Prize for explanatory journalism.
He was the paper's education editor from 1999 to 2001 and its national education correspondent from 1997 to 1999.
Bronner, a graduate of Wesleyan University's College of Letters and the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, began his journalistic career at Reuters in 1980, reporting from London, Madrid, Brussels and Jerusalem.
He worked for The Boston Globe from 1985 until 1997, where he started on general assignment and urban affairs. He went on to be the paper's Supreme Court and legal affairs correspondent in Washington, D.C. and then its Middle East correspondent, based in Jerusalem.
Bronner is the author of Battle for Justice: How the Bork Nomination Shook America (Norton, 1989), which was chosen by The New York Public Library as one of the 25 best books of 1989.[2][3][4][5][6][7]
Controversy
In February 2010, Times executive editor Bill Keller confirmed that Bronner's then 20-year-old son had joined the Israeli Defense Forces. Bronner said that "either you are the kind of person whose intellectual independence and journalistic integrity can be trusted to do the work we do at the Times, or you are not." Times ombudsman Clark Hoyt wrote that Bronner "has done nothing wrong," but, citing perception issues, called for the Times to "find him a plum assignment somewhere else, at least for the duration of his son's service in the I.D.F." The Times declined to do so.[8] In March 2011, Bronner's son completed his service, and moved back to New York to work with children with special needs and attend college.
Personal
Bronner and his wife Naomi, a psychologist, live in New York. They have two sons.
