David Horovitz is the editor-in-chief of The Jerusalem
Post. He assumed that position October 2004, after
having worked for the 14 previous years at the
award-winning newsmagazine The Jerusalem Report, where
he was the editor and publisher.
Horovitz has also written from Israel for publications
around the world, including The New York Times, Los
Angeles Times, The Irish Times and The (London)
Independent. He is a frequent interviewee on CNN, the
BBC, NPR and other TV and radio stations.
Horovitz is the author of "Still Life with Bombers:
Israel in the Age of Terrorism," which was published
in the U.S. by Knopf in 2004 and named as one of the
year's Top 12 books on CNN.com. He is also the author
of "A Little Too Close to God: The Thrills and Panic
of a Life in Israel" (2000). He edited and co-wrote,
with other members of staff, The Jerusalem Report's
1996 biography of Yitzhak Rabin, "Shalom, Friend,"
which was published in 12 countries and won the U.S.
National Jewish Book Award for Non-Fiction. Under his
editorship, The Jerusalem Report won the JDC's Boris
Smolar award for journalism last year, and Horovitz
won the Bnai Brith World Center award for journalism
in 1995 for his coverage of the previous year's Buenos
Aires Jewish community center bombing.
