Thirty-eight Witnesses by A M Rosenthal
It remains one of New York City's most notorious deaths: When 28-year-old Kitty Genovese was brutally murdered in an attack that took nearly 30 minutes, not one of the 38 witnesses did a thing to stop the murderer or call for help. AM Rosenthal, who later became one of the most famous and controversial editors of the New York Times, was the newspaper's city editor then; the murder happened on his beat. He first published this book in 1964, the year of the murder. It is part memoir, part investigative journalism, and part public service.
A.M. Rosenthal was editor of The New York Times from 1969 through 1986, during which time he gained fame for the paper's coverage of the war in Vietnam, Watergate, the Iran-Contra scandal, and in particular for his decision to publish the Pentagon Papers. Prior to that he was a foreign correspondent for the Times, for which he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1960. He died in 2006.
