Carl Bernstein Plans Memoir on His Cub Reporter Days

By: Julie Bosman | New York Times

The writer Carl Bernstein has struck a deal to write a memoir of his early years as a cub reporter in Washington, his publisher, Henry Holt & Company, said on Monday.

Rather than focusing on his famous tenure at The Washington Post, where with Bob Woodward he was part of the team that won a Pulitzer Prize for coverage of Watergate, Mr. Bernstein will write about The Washington Star, the capital’s renowned afternoon newspaper, which ceased publication in 1981.
