Haynes Bonner Johnson (July 9, 1931 - May 24, 2013) was an American journalist, author, and television analyst. He reported on most of the major news stories of the latter half of the 20th century and was widely regarded as one of the top American political commentators. Johnson won a Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting in 1966, for his coverage of the civil rights crisis in Selma, Alabama. The award marked the first time in Pulitzer Prize history that a father and son both received awards for reporting; his father, Malcolm Johnson, won in 1949 for the New York Sun series, "Crime on the Waterfront," which was the basis for the Academy Award-winning film, On the Waterfront. He was the author or editor of sixteen books, five of them bestsellers, including his work, co-authored with Washington Post political reporter Dan Balz, The Battle for America: 2008. Johnson also was a regular commentator on the PBS television shows Washington Week in Review and The News Hour. He held academic appointments at Duke University, Princeton University, University of California at Berkeley, the University of Pennsylvania and George Washington University and served as the Knight chair of public affairs journalism at the University of Maryland from 1998 until 2013. The Best of Times--the '90s were indeed the best of times. Unprecedented wealth and the breathtaking progress of science and technology ushered in the Internet and the deciphering of the genome. Promises abounded, but a deepening sense of unease hovered over America as the worst of times seemed to be upon us as well-gossip, scandal, and a frenzied media like nothing ever seen before. Based on exclusive interviews with the decade's most influential players, here is a fascinating re-creation of the best and worst episodes of the decade. With sweeping force and cultural acumen, Johnson revives the '90s, the ups and downs, filled with all that we may have forgotten and, most importantly, all that we never knew. In four fascinating parts, Johnson delivers the stories behind the stories-revealing the personalities behind the media party of the '90s, the partisanship that didn't succeed in bringing down the president, the pervasive technology that stretched from Silicon Valley to Monsanto with the corresponding hopes and fears, and the equally extreme reactions on Wall Street to every last bit of it. A tremendous work from a major authority and writer, The Best of Times covers the entire wonderful yet woeful decade, gavel to gavel. Includes interviews with: Book One: Technotimes ; Nathan Myhrvold, chief technology guru (former), Microsoft; David Baltimore, president, Cal Tech University and Nobel Prize winner; Bob Shapiro, chief executive officer, Monsanto; Regis McKenna, entrepreneur; Book Two: Teletimes: Ted Harbert, head of TV programming, DreamWorks SKG; Norman Lear, creator of "All in the Family"; David Geffen, partner, DreamWorks SKG; Michael Bloomberg, head of Bloomberg News; Steven Brill, founder of Brill's Content; Book Three: Scandal Times: Sam Dash, law professor, Georgetown; Senator Alan K. Simpson (former); Senator Dale Bumpers (former); Book Four: Millennial Times: Senator Bob Kerrey (former); Senator John McCain; Dr. Ruth Faden, medical ethicist. In addition, Johnson interviewed leaders of Congress, top White House aides, cabinet members, and prominent political operatives of both parties in gathering material for this history.
