The Press: Schanberg's Score

Monday, May. 19, 1975

(2 of 2)

Schanberg left Bangkok to join his family in Singapore late last week. A 16-year veteran of the Times who spent two years as Albany bureau chief before going to New Delhi in 1969, Harvardman ('55) Schanberg is due to report this summer for a new assignment as the Times's Warsaw correspondent. He is known to have been bitterly disappointed that his coverage of the 1972 India-Pakistan war did not win a Pulitzer Prize, and determined to win one for his Cambodia reporting. "An entire country was turned upside down and restructured by new rulers," Schanberg told TIME. "It was a spectacle of such proportions and such rarity that I would not hesitate to stay for it again."
