What I Cover
I’m covering health, including the drug industry, insurance denials and changes in access to reproductive care.
My Background
I was among the first reporters to join ProPublica in 2008, and I then went on to serve as the managing editor from 2013 to 2022 before returning to reporting. Stories I’ve reported or edited have won pretty much all the journalism awards there are. As a ProPublica reporter, I’ve written mostly about health, including stories on U.S. dialysis care, psychiatric hospitals, maternal mortality, health insurance denials and pricey prescription drugs. Before joining ProPublica, I was a reporter at the Los Angeles Times, where I investigated California’s guardianship system for incapacitated adults, and the Sun-Sentinel in South Florida, where I wrote about consumer scams as well as innumerable disasters, both natural and manmade.
