He produced investigative reports for ABC News in the 1980s; [2] and later help revolutionize the public's view and understanding of mental health issues through the production of public media, documentary films and groundbreaking public education campaigns. [3] [4][5]Lichtenstein and his company also pioneered the use of emerging media, including the 3-D virtual reality community, Second Life. [6] [7]

His work has been honored with more than 60 major journalism awards ,[11] including a Peabody Award;[12] a Guggenheim Fellowship;[13] eight National Headliner Awards; Cine Golden Eagle;[14] a United Nations Media Award; and three National News Emmy Award nominations.[15][16] Lichtenstein has also been open about his 1986 diagnosis with bipolar disorder. [17]

Early life

Lichtenstein began his career in broadcasting in 1970, at the age of 14, working at WBCN-FM, one of the country's original progressive rock radio stations. Lichtenstein worked at WBCN, while in high school, as newscaster and on-air announcer. [18] His 1973 radio documentary, "What is News?", which examined the impact of corporate ownership and control of the news industry, was awarded a NPR "Youth Radio Award." [19]

Lichtenstein graduated from Brown University [20] in 1978 with degrees in Political Science and English (double major). While at Brown, Lichtenstein worked at WBRU-FM, the 20,000-watt commercial radio station operated by Brown students, and he served as the station's program director in 1975. Lichtenstein received a M.S. degree from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism in 1979.[21] While at Columbia Journalism, Lichtenstein co-authored with David Wimhurst an investigative report on the FBI's infiltration of the Puerto Rican independence movement, published in the Nation.[22]


ABC News

Bill Lichtenstein, producer and Sylvia Chase, correspondent, editing segment for ABC News 20/20 on mob war in Youngstown, Ohio and controversial Sheriff James Traficant.

Lichtenstein began his work in television as a writer for ABC and CBS Sports, including as Chief Writer for CBS's coverage of the 1979 Pan American games. [23]Lichtenstein worked for ABC News from 1979 through 1986, where he researched and later produced investigative reports for the ABC News magazine 20/20, Nightline, World News Tonight, and Morning News.

In 1980, Lichtenstein, along with 20/20 producer Jeff Diamond and correspondent Sylvia Chase, worked on groundbreaking investigative reports on deadly automobile design flaws that were awarded an Emmy. [24] [25]Lichtenstein collaborated with producers Lowell Bergman and Andrew Cockburn on "COINTELPRO: The Secret War," the first network news report on FBI's covert dirty tricks program to disrupt and neutralize political activists, including actress Jean Seberg, and Black Panther Geronimo Pratt. He worked on "American Held Hostage: The Secret Negotiations," a three-hour prime time ABC News special hosted, by Pierre Salinger, that chronicled the previously unreported, extensive efforts by President Jimmy Carter to gain the release of the American hostages in Iran.

In 1983, Lichtenstein was nominated for three national news Emmy Awards, for a 20/20 segment he co-produced, Throwaway Kids, a nine-month investigation into abused and dying children in Oklahoma state juvenile institutions,[26] "The Danger Within," a report on the dangers of Urea-Formaldehyde home insulation that resulted in a Congressional ban of the product,[27] and "Nuclear Preparation: Can We Survive?" an investigation into President Reagan's secret plans for the U.S. to prepare to survive all-out nuclear war.

Lichtenstein produced three investigative reports for ABC News during the 1984 presidential elections, focusing on three key members of President Ronald Reagan's administration: a report on U.S. Information Agency Director Charles Wick, a close friend of President Reagan, revealed that he owned a chain of California nursing homes that public investigators called the worst in the state; an investigation of Reagan friend and campaign manager Senator Paul Laxalt (R-Nevada)for accepting campaign contributions from leading organized crime figures in the casino industry at the same time Laxalt was pressuring officials at the highest level of the Justice Department to curtail FBI investigations of mob activity in Las Vegas; and connections between Reagan's Secretary of Labor Raymond Donovan and organized crime, related to his control, as Secretary of Labor, of the Teamster pension fund. All three reports were killed by ABC before air.

A 1985 Mother Jones magazine cover story, entitled "How ABC Spikes the News: Three Reagan Administration Scandals that Never Appeared on World News Tonight," revealed the three reports were spiked by the network following conversations between ABC corporate executives and the Reagan White House, as part of the network's efforts to gain favor with the Reagan administration to increase the maximum number of local TV stations that any one entity could own.[28]

The events surrounding the three reports were detailed in Mark Hertsgaard's "On Bended Knee," [29] and "Project Censored" cited the reports as "Three Stories that Might Have Changed the Course of the 1984 Election" in their annual top ten censored stories list in 1984.[30]

Investigative Reporter

In 1986, Lichtenstein was one of the two show producers of the ABC late-night program "Jimmy Breslin's People," featuring the Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist.[31]

Lichtenstein worked briefly in 1986 for The Investigative Group, at the law firm of Rogovin, Huge and Lenzner, then out of house council for the CIA. Headed by former Watergate counsel Terry Lenzner, Lichtenstein worked with IGI on several projects including tracking missing royalties for the Beatles' Apple Records, and working undercover in Perth, Australia with Australian mining and steel-making company Broken Hills Proprietary (BHP), the country's largest corporation, to stave off a hostile takeover by conservative industrialist Robert Holmes à Court and a then group of pro-Apartheid South Africans, who were seeking control of BHP to shift their mining operations from South Africa to Australia as Apartheid was ending in South Africa[32][33]

Lichtenstein uncovered and reported on efforts by the White House under President George H.W. Bush, involving staffers Bill Kristol and John Sununu, to pressure the Chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts, John Frohmayer, to cancel four grants to Karen Finley, Holly Hughes, John Fleck and Tim Miller, because of the controversial nature of their art. The NEA Four, as the artists became known, later sued the NEA in National Endowment for the Arts v. Finley.[34] Lichtenstein's article in the Village Voice, "The Secret Battle for the NEA"The Secret Battle for the NEA," captured third place in the National Headliner Awards for magazine coverage of a major news event. [35]

Lichtenstein Creative Media

Lichtenstein founded the Peabody Award-winning Lichtenstein Creative Media, Inc., in 1990. The company produced the "Voices of an Illness" documentary series, the first programs to feature people who were living with, and recovered from, serious mental illness. The series "set new standards of scientific accuracy in media coverage of mental health," according to the National Institute of Mental Health, and was called "remarkable" in a feature article in Time magazine.[36]

Lichtenstein Creative Media produced "If I Get Out Alive," narrated by Academy Award-winning actress and youth advocate Diane Keaton. the first documentary to reveal the conditions and brutality faced by young people incarcerated in the adult correctional system. The program was honored with a National Headliner Award and a Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism.[37]

Bill Lichtenstein produced and was director of photography of the award-winning documentary film, "West 47th Street.",[38] which aired on PBS' P.O.V., and was called "must see" by Newsweek. [39] The film won the Atlanta and DC Independent Film Festivals.,[40] and an Honorable Mention at the Woodstock Film Festival.

Lichtenstein created and was senior executive producer of the national, one-hour weekly public radio series, The Infinite Mind, which for a decade, starting in 1998 and examined all aspects of neuroscience, mental health, and the mind.[41][42] The series looked at "how the brain works, and why it sometimes does not, covering mental health, neuroscience and the mind/body connection from scientific, cultural and policy perspectives," [43] and was public radio's most honored and listened to health and science program.[44]

"The Infinite Mind" was hosted by Dr. Fred Goodwin, the former head of the National Institute of Mental Health; Dr. Peter Kramer, author of the best-selling "Listening to Prozac," and John Hockenberry, and broke ground and news on such topics as: Addiction; Aspergers Syndrome; Alzheimer's; Bullying; Chronic Fatigue Syndrome; Depression; Mental Health and Immigrants; Post Traumatic Stress Disorder; Postpartum Depression; and Teen Suicide. The national broadcast was was widely hailed for its coverage of the mental health impact of the 9/11 attacks, and for providing needed resources to public radio listeners.[45]

In addition to researchers and experts, "The Infinite Mind" built a broad audience by featuring leading scientists and researchers, and notable guests, on a wide variety of topics including John Updike (sleep); actors including Carey Fisher (living with bipolar); comedians Richard Lewis (addiction) and Lewis Black (anger); the Firesign Theater (humor); author William Styron and his wife Rose Styron (depression); baseball batting champ Wade Boggs (sports psychology); former First Lady Rosalynn Carter (stigma); and live performances and discussions with musicians including Aimee Mann, Jessye Norman, Judy Collins, Suzanne Vega, Loudon Wainwright III, Philip Glass, and Emanuel Ax. The decade-long series received major funding from the MacArthur Foundation, the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health.[45]

Bill serves as a judge for the National News Emmy Awards, and as a screener/reviewer for the duPont Awards. He is on the Advisory Board of the Rosalynn Carter Fellowships for Mental Health Journalism;[46] the National Leadership Council of the National Alliance for Research on Schizophrenia and Depression (now known as the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation); the advisory council of the Center for the Advancement of Children's Mental Health at Columbia University; review committees at the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation; and advisory boards of Families for Depression Awareness [47] and the Parents/Professionals Advocacy League.

Bill's work, and that of Lichtenstein Creative Media, has been honored with the top media awards from the major national mental health organizations, including the National Institute of Mental Health; American Psychiatric Association; National Mental Health Association; National Alliance on Mental Illness; American College of Neuropsychopharmacology; and the National Alliance for Research on Schizophrenia and Depression.[48]

Lichtenstein's company pioneered the uses as public media of on-line 3-D virtual world, including Second Life.[49] Lichtenstein Creative Media produced the first ever concert and live radio broadcast from Second Life in August 2006, with singer Suzanne Vega and author Kurt Vonnegut, who both appeared in avatar form.[50]

Subsequent events produced by Lichtenstein Creative Media in Second Life include a live press conference with Italian Minister of Infrastructure Antonio Di Pietra,[51] and a live town meeting on Darfur with Mia Farrow, produced in partnership with the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.[52] BusinessWeek magazine cited Lichtenstein as one of eight "Savvy CEO's Who Hang Out in Second Life", along with IBM's CEO Sam Palmisano and former Virginia Governor Mark Warner.[53] Lichtenstein wrote the essay "The Transmission of Experience," identifying interactive 3-D virtual reality experiences such as Second Life as being the first to "transmit experience" over distances.[54] Lichtenstein Creative Media maintains a 16-acre virtual broadcast center in Second Life.[55]

From 1980 to 2006, Lichtenstein taught investigative reporting for TV and documentary film production at The New School in New York City.

Lichtenstein Creative Media is currently working on a four-part series for PBS focusing on the intersection of foster care, education, juvenile justice and mental health funded by the MacArthur Foundation and a Guggenheim Fellowship and "The American Revolution," a documentary film examining the cultural, social and political changes in the late 1960s.

Fred Goodwin and The Infinite Mind

On May 9, 2008, Slate published a negative article about a program of "The Infinite Mind" in which psychiatric medications for depression were discussed, and where all the participants of the program, including Dr. Goodwin himself, had financial ties to pharmaceutical companies who produce depression medications. This conflict of interest was not disclosed by the producers of the show, Dr. Goodwin, or any of the people appearing on the show. This article led to the later New York Times report about the incident. [56] Lichtenstein acknowledged the lack of disclosure that the experts on the show had each at one point worked on pharmaceutical company funded research, but pointed out that the program was not aware of these links, and that neither the New York Times, nor CNN, which had previously interviewed each of them, had disclosed this either.

On November 21, 2008, the New York Times reported that the host of "The Infinite Mind," Dr. Fred Goodwin, had received "at least $1.3 million from 2000 to 2007 giving marketing lectures for drugmakers, income not mentioned on the program." Goodwin also claimed that the show's producers were aware of this income, an allegation disputed by Lichtenstein.[42]

However, a week after the New York Times article, the National Public Radio series, "On the Media," ran a story that an anonymous source had corroborated Goodwin's claim that he had informed the show's producers of his income from drug makers. Three months later, on March 12, 2008, "On the Media" issued a correction in which they admitted a "lapse of journalistic judgment" [57] for relying on an anonymous source, who later said she had "no first-hand evidence that [Lichtenstein] knew of any fees," [58]while not contacting Lichtenstein before air, and restating his assurance that The Infinite Mind "had always adhered to standard journalism practice in vetting guests and disclosing conflicts of interest." [59]

New York Times Op-Ed

Photo taken of closet on basement stairwell being used as isolation room, in Lexington, MA school, as reported in Bill Lichtenstein's September 9, 2012 Sunday New York Times story.

On September 9, 2012, the Sunday New York Times published an article in its Sunday Review section, by Bill Lichtenstein, entitled "A Terrifying Way to Discipline Children". The story detailed the use of restraints and seclusion rooms nationwide, including with Lichtenstein's own then 5 year-old daughter in 2006. The publication of the Opinion section article received enormous national media and reader response. [60] Since the article appeared other families have come forward with reports that their children had also been placed in the Lexington school isolation room. [61]

Concurrent with the publication of the article, Lichtenstein released the complaint in a legal action brought against the town of Lexington, which detailed the alleged abuse of his daughter as taken from school records. The action was settled in 2009 for nearly $400,000.

In the article, Lichtenstein claims that he and his then-wife found their daughter in a basement closet at the child's local kindergarten school in Lexington, Mass. "standing alone on the cement floor of a basement mop closet, illuminated by a single light bulb. There was nothing in the closet for a child — no chair, no books, no crayons, nothing but our daughter standing naked in a pool of urine, looking frightened as she tried to cover herself with her hands." [62]

On September 18, 2012, the Times published an unsigned "Editor's Note", the author of which Lichtenstein has identified as deputy opinion section editor Sewell Chan, [63]which highlighted challenges by Lexington Public Schools to some of Lichtenstein's claims in the article.[64]

The editor's note stated, in part, that, "The girl wet herself while being confined in a closet for misbehaving. But school officials, and a 2008 deposition by the girl’s mother, state that she was then cleaned up and dressed while her parents were notified — and that it was not the case that the parents found her standing alone, unclothed, in her urine."

The editor's note also stated that the closet where the girl was confined, was on a "mezzanine between two classroom levels, not in the basement." Finally, it noted: "While the girl’s parents sued the Lexington school district in 2007, and obtained a settlement in 2008, the writer did not notify two Massachusetts state agencies — the Department of Children and Families and the Department of Mental Health — “at the time” of the episode, according to state records."

Lichtenstein has disputed all three points in the editor's note, including the language Chan attributed to the deposition [65] and has provided documentation including depositions, logs of child abuse reports filed with the state, and photos of the basement closet in which his daughter was locked. Lichtenstein has stated that he stands by the story, as does the Times, which has not published a correction to the article, nor changed any of the language in the story at NYTimes.com Lichtenstein's response in detail to the editor's note is on his website: "[66]"
