Thomas Friedman - The World is Flat, Suneet Singal
October, 2010
One of the most influential authors I have read is Thomas Friedman, best known for his novel, The World is Flat, which was published in 2005. Friedman is also the author of Hot, Flat, and Crowded; Longitudes and Attitudes; and The Lexus and the Olive Tree. Born in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, Friedman studied at the University of Minnesota for two years before transferring to Brandeis University, where he received a Bachelor of Arts in Mediterranean Studies. Friedman was awarded a Marshall scholarship and attended the University of Oxford’s St. Antony’s College, where he earned a Master of Philosophy in Middle Eastern Studies. Friedman later joined the London bureau of United Press International and was dispatched to Beirut until 1981, when he accepted a position at The New York Times. Friedman was sent back to Beirut the following year at the start of the Israeli invasion of Lebanon. He won a Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting due to his exemplary coverage of the war, especially the Sabra and Shatila massacre. Friedman also won the 1982 George Polk Award for Foreign Reporting. From 1984 to 1988, Friedman was assigned to Jerusalem, where his coverage of the First Palestinian Intifada won him a second Pulitzer Prize. During President George Bush, Sr.’s administration, Thomas Friedman covered Secretary of State James Baker, and after the election of Bill Clinton, he was hired as the White House correspondent for The New York Times. In 1995, Friedman started writing for the newspaper’s op-ed page, covering foreign affairs, which won him a third Pulitzer Prize, this time for Commentary. In 2004, Friedman also received the Overseas Press Club Award for lifetime achievement, and he was also a key figure in Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah’s Arab Peace Initiative. Thomas Friedman is a truly inspirational figure whose dedication and wisdom have proved indispensable not only to the press, but to Middle East conflict resolution.
