David Barstow He won the Pulitzer Prize in 2004 for his investigation of workplace safety. According to The New York Times, the collaborative work "broke open workplace safety by examining death and injury among American workers and exposed employers who break basic safety rules." His investigation on workplace safety produced two series for The New York Times, as well as an hour-long documentary on PBS. It was those two series, called '"Dangerous Business" and "When Workers Die," that were awarded the Pulitzer. The two series and documentary received a number of additional awards, including the George Polk Award for labor reporting.

He has more recently collaborated to publish a piece that examines the use of television programs about controversial issues such as the war in Iraq that are produced by the government, and often not recognized as such. The article is called "Under Bush, a New Age of Prepackaged TV News." Before Barstow's presentation in the ballroom, he will be talking exclusively to Communications students at a classroom that has not yet been determined.
