David Finkel is a journalist and author whose latest book, "An American Dreamer: Life in a Divided Country", will be published In February 2024 by Random House. His first book, "The Good Soldiers," was based on a year he spent embedded with a U.S. army infantry battalion during the Iraq war. The best-selling book was named by the New York Times as one of the ten best books of 2009. For his second book, "Thank You For Your Service," Finkel wrote about some of the battalion’s most injured soldiers as they and their families tried to recover from what war had done to all of them, physically, psychologically and morally. The book was named a top ten book of 2013 by the Washington Post and a notable book of the year by the New York Times, and it was the basis for a feature-length film that was produced by DreamWorks Pictures and released by Universal Pictures in October 2017. In addition to writing books, Finkel is an editor and writer for the Washington Post. His awards and honors include a Pulitzer Prize and a MacArthur Foundation “genius” grant.
