Marilyn Berger is a journalist, biographer, and television correspondent whose career spans more than four decades and includes coverage of pivotal events in modern history. Berger has held roles as diplomatic correspondent for Newsday and The Washington Post, reporting on the Six-Day War, the Vietnam peace process, and Henry Kissinger’s shuttle diplomacy in the Middle East. Her investigative reporting contributed to Watergate scandal coverage, notably uncovering sources behind political sabotage, and she later served as White House correspondent for NBC News, covering national conventions and anchoring public affairs programs such as "The Advocates" and WNET’s "City Edition."
Berger has written for The New York Times, New York Magazine, and The New Yorker, and authored major obituaries for The New York Times, chronicling the lives of world leaders and cultural figures. Her book, "This Is a Soul: The Mission of Rick Hodes," explores the humanitarian work of Dr. Rick Hodes in Ethiopia and reflects Berger’s commitment to reporting on global challenges and personal stories. Her reporting from China during the Cultural Revolution and Prague during the springtime thaw demonstrates her ability to provide analysis of complex international events.
Berger is a public speaker who addresses topics including philanthropy, altruism, medical advancements, and biography writing. Her presentations are informed by firsthand encounters with historical events and her own experiences, including her journey to motherhood after adopting a child she met while researching in Ethiopia.
