Early life[edit]
Nordlinger grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan, which he refers to as a left-leaning "Citadel of the Left", and opines about in his political columns. His father worked in the education sector and his mother was an artist.[4]
Career[edit]
Since 2002, he has hosted a series of public interviews at the Salzburg Festival. With Mona Charen, he hosts the Need to Know podcast, and he also hosts a podcast called "Q&A." In 2011, he filmed The Human Parade, with Jay Nordlinger, a TV series bringing hour-long interviews with various personalities.
In 2007, National Review Books published Here, There & Everywhere: Collected Writings of Jay Nordlinger, comprising some 100 pieces on various subjects.[5] In 2012, Encounter Books published Peace, They Say: A History of the Nobel Peace Prize, the Most Famous and Controversial Prize in the World.[6] In 2015, Encounter Books published Children of Monsters: An Inquiry into the Sons and Daughters of Dictators.[7]
Awards[edit]
In 2001, Nordlinger received the Eric Breindel Award for Excellence in Opinion Journalism,[8] an annual award, given by the News Corporation, in honor of its late editorial-page editor. It is meant to go to a journalist who demonstrates "love of country and its democratic institutions" and "bears witness to the evils of totalitarianism."
Also in 2001, Nordlinger won the annual award of the Chan Foundation for Journalism and Culture. The award and the foundation were established in honor of Zhu Xi Chan, the Hong Kong newspaper owner whose pages covered events in Chairman Mao Zedong's China. The award is intended for a journalist "who uses his talents to work for freedom and democracy in China."
