Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Paperback. As a foreign correspondent and TV journalist David Tereshschuk has reported from many of the world's most intractable troublespots but one question continues to elude him: who his father was. David Tereshchuk leapt from an unpromising childhood in a small town on the English-Scottish borders to a precocious high-flying career as a TV journalist, first in London, then New York. During his time, he has managed to elicit definitive answers from tyrants and the oppressed, but never managed to coax his mother into revealing who his father was, even after her revelation to him, when he was in his 50s, that she had been raped, aged 15, by a priest. Alongside his career, the search for his mother's abuser has haunted him, adding further layers of stress to a life already marked by alcoholism and insecurity. This is his astonishing story, and one that deserves to sit alongside those of Tom Brokaw, Peter Jennings and David Brinkley. AUTHOR: David Tereshchuk (b. 1948) is a journalist working mainly in the broadcast media but also for magazines and newspapers (The Guardian, New York Times, New Statesman). He spent two decades with British commercial television, reporting, producing and making documentaries, before moving to the US, where he worked for ABC, CBS, CNN, Discovery, A&E and The History Channel. His earliest work included coverage of sectarian violence in Northern Ireland, and then extended into international issues, especially in the Third World. Since 2012 he has been a producer and correspondent for PBS, concentrating on ethical issues. He broadcasts a weekly public radio dispatch of media criticism, The Media Beat, and writes an online column with the same name, at He has also advised global corporations, governments, non-profits and international organizations on their media and communications policies. A graduate of Oxford University, he has been a US citizen since 2002 and lives in New York City and Ireland. He has been honored by Britain's Royal Television Society with its Social Documentary Award, and by the British Association for the Advancement of Science with its Television Award. A search for a father's identity, a mothers abuser, and an answer to a life marked by alcoholism and insecurity.
