Carl Weisbrod was two years out of graduate school, planning a career in law, when a new book about municipal builder Robert Moses changed his life: Robert Caro’s “The Power Broker.”

First the good news: The Pulitzer Prize for Public Service was not only the best-covered of its awards this year, but it recognized a series of disclosures that made many media outlets nervous, if not adversarial—the publication of NSA secrets leaked by Edward Snowden.

The 2012 Pulitzer Prize winners were announced on April 16.

The classic novel To Kill A Mockingbird is being honored in a new special edition marking the 50th anniversary.

At 76, Pulitzer Prize-winning author John Updike passed away at a hospice in Beverly Farms, Mass. on Jan 27. The cause of death was lung cancer.
