Robert Krulwich - keynote + panel

Robert Krulwich is an American radio and television journalist whose specialty is explaining complex topics in depth.

Krulwich received his bachelor's degree in U.S. history from Oberlin College in 1969, and his Juris Doctor degree from Columbia Law School in 1974. Just two months later, he abandoned his pursuit of a law career to cover the Watergate hearings for Pacifica Radio. In 1976, he became Washington bureau chief for Rolling Stone.

From 1978 to 1985, he was the business and economics correspondent for NPR. Among other creative efforts, he recorded an opera called "Rato Interesso" to explain interest rates. He went on to host the PBS arts series, The Edge.

In 1984, he joined CBS and appeared regularly on This Morning, 48 Hours, and Nightwatch with Charlie Rose. During the first Gulf War, he co-anchored the CBS program, America Tonight. In 1994, he joined ABC.

Annually, he hosts a semi-fictional year-in-review program called Backfire for NPR. In 1995, at the invitation of President and Mrs. Clinton, the group who collaborates with Krulwich to produce Backfire performed at the White House.

In 1999 he hosted an eight-part primetime series for ABC "Nightline" called Brave New World (which frequently featured his friends, They Might Be Giants, as musical guests).

Krulwich, in 2004, became the host and managing editor of the innovative PBS science program, "NOVA scienceNOW". The show often tackled science stories considered too complex for television, sometimes using cartoons and musical production numbers to illustrate abstract concepts. In 2005, Krulwich re-established a relationship with NPR, where he made regular contributions to several programs on science topics, while continuing to produce occasional segments for ABC News. By early 2006, with several projects going at once, Krulwich decided to end his work on NOVA scienceNOW after only five episodes. 

Krulwich regularly moderates discussions on scientific topics at the 92nd Street Y in New York City. (He is an alumnus of their nursery school.) His presentations at the YMHA have featured such prominent scientists as Brian Greene and James D. Watson. 

He is a regular correspondent on the PBS investigative series, Frontline. Krulwich substitutes for the hosts of NPR's magazine shows, and he co-hosts the Radiolab program with Jad Abumrad.
