Politics & Prose at Busboys and Poets, Brookland, presents Stephanie Steinberg and her new book In The Name of Editorial Freedom.
An editor at U.S. News and World Report, Stephanie Steinberg, like many other award-winning journalists at premier news outlets across the world, got her start on The Michigan Daily. Founded in 1890 and still thriving, with a print circulation of some 18,000, The Michigan Daily is much more than a student newspaper, as this collection (titled after the paper’s longstanding masthead) demonstrates. Joining Steinberg to discuss the Daily’s important work are three of her fellow alums, including Sara Fitzgerald, who went on to write for major news organizations including The Washington Post; Andy Kroll, who is currently a political correspondent for National Journal; and Leslie Wayne, now of The Philadelphia Inquirer.
