阅读卡尔·伯恩斯坦 Carl Bernstein在小说之家的作品!!! | |||
生平
1944年在美国华盛顿哥伦比亚特区出生，犹太裔，父母均为共产党。大学在马里兰大学学院市分校就读，并未毕业已投身新闻界，1966年加入《华盛顿邮报》。
事业
1972年，伯恩斯坦与同事鲍勃·伍德沃德通过其内线“深喉”（即马克·费尔特）的情报及协助，率先披露了水门事件丑闻，从而迫使总统尼克逊下台，名噪新闻界。两人也因此获得了1973年的普利策新闻奖，其后他们亦合作将他们的经历撰写成书本《总统班底》，在1974年出版。有关此事件，两人还合著了另外两本书：第一本是《最后的日子》（The Final Days），有关尼克逊下台前的日子，在1976年出版；第二本是在“深喉”的身分于2005年爆光后出版，名为The Secret Man。
伯恩斯坦水门事件后的事业并没像伍德沃德一样一帆风顺，更因时常与好莱坞影星一起，令声名大受影响，如《华盛顿邮报》的70年周年纪念就没有邀请他。1976年，伯恩斯坦离开《华盛顿邮报》，其后曾当ABC新闻的华盛顿分社主管，任教于纽约大学，及为《时代杂志》撰稿，现时受聘于《名利场》。
期间撰写了一本有关他父母的自传，名为Loyalties: A Son's Memoir，1989年出版。亦与Marco Politi合著了一本有关若望·保禄二世的传记，名His Holiness: John Paul II & the History of Our Time，1996年出版。其后于2007年出版了一本有关希拉里·罗德姆·克林顿的传记，名A Woman in Charge: The Life of Hillary Rodham Clinton。
私人生活
第二任妻子为诺拉·艾芙蓉（Nora Ephron），两人1976年结婚，育有二子Jacob及Max，但已因伯恩斯坦的不忠而于1980年离异。伯恩斯坦的出轨对象为玛嘉烈·杰伊（Margaret Jay，詹姆斯·卡拉汉之女），艾芙蓉发现时正怀着第二子Max，更因此早产。艾芙蓉其后将两人的婚姻经过改编成1983年出版的小说《心火》，将影射伯恩斯坦的角色描绘得相当不堪，该小说更在1983年被改编成同名电影。
伯恩斯坦现与名为Christine的现任妻子住在纽约。
电影
《总统班底》曾被改编成电影，由艾伦·帕库拉执导，饰演伯恩斯坦的是德斯汀·荷夫曼，鲍勃·伍德沃德则由罗拔·烈福饰演。
伯恩斯坦还在银幕上出现过两次，一次是在喜剧片《白宫也疯狂》（Dick）中，由Bruce McCulloch饰演，另一次由杰克·尼科尔森在《心火》中扮演一个影射伯恩斯坦的角色。

In a 1977 Rolling Stone article, Bernstein revealed that over 400 US journalists had been employed by the Central Intelligence Agency, secretly carrying out assignments and publishing news stories for them.
Personal
In his 1989 memoir Loyalties, Bernstein revealed that his parents had been members of the Communist Party, which shocked some because even J. Edgar Hoover had tried and been unable to prove that Bernstein's parents were party members. Bernstein's parents were allegedly persecuted during the 1950s. The FBI conducted surveillance on his family over a 30 year period producing over 2,500 pages of documents, including notes taken by agents staking out his bar mitzvah.
Bernstein graduated from Montgomery Blair High School in Silver Spring, Maryland. He subsequently attended the University of Maryland, College Park, but did not graduate. Bernstein, who is Jewish, is a lifetime member of B'nai B'rith and once was President of B'nai B'rith's Northern Region.
Bernstein met Margaret Jay, daughter of British Prime Minister James Callaghan and wife of Peter Jay, then UK ambassador to the United States. They had a much-publicised extramarital relationship in 1979. Margaret later became a government minister in her own right. Bernstein and his second wife, screenwriter Nora Ephron, already had an infant son, Jacob, and she was pregnant with their second son, Max, in 1980 when she learned of her husband's affair with Jay. Ephron delivered Max prematurely after finding out. Writer Ephron was inspired by the events to write the 1983 novel Heartburn, which was made into a 1986 film starring Jack Nicholson and Meryl Streep. In the thinly fictionalized book, Ephron gave unflattering depictions of both Jay and Bernstein, writing of a husband who was “capable of having sex with a Venetian blind" and saying that Jay looked like a giraffe with "big feet."
Bernstein then became known for dating Bianca Jagger, Martha Stewart and Elizabeth Taylor.
He currently resides in New York with his wife, Christine.

v • d • e
Bernstein began working for The Washington Post in 1966 and played an integral role in his partnership with Bob Woodward during the Watergate scandal. Bernstein was the first to suspect that Nixon played a part, and Bernstein found the laundered check that linked Nixon to the burglary.
Bernstein quit The Washington Post in 1976. Post-Watergate, he did not realize the same level of success that Woodward did; his frequent appearances in gossip columns resulting from the book Ephron wrote, his arrest, and his dating of Hollywood celebrities overshadowed his journalistic accomplishments. Notably, Washington Post owner Katharine Graham did not invite him to the newspaper's 70th birthday gala, which was widely regarded as a snub given Bernstein's contributions toward bringing the Post to international stature.
After leaving the Post, he worked as the Washington Bureau Chief and as a senior correspondent for ABC News, taught at New York University, and contributed to Time. Bernstein authored two books with Woodward: All the President's Men, which details the successes and failures of their journalistic efforts against the backdrop of the unfolding scandal, and The Final Days, a recounting of the concluding months of the Nixon presidency, although Woodward questioned Bernstein's contributions to the latter book and reportedly did not want to list Bernstein as a co-author. Woodward said, "It was not the most productive time for Carl." Woodward reportedly turned down offers to again work with Bernstein on an investigative column or any further books.
He co-authored the book His Holiness: John Paul II & the History of Our Time with Marco Politi. Following the May 2005 revelation of the identity of Deep Throat, Bernstein contributed to Woodward's book The Secret Man, which pertains to Woodward's relationship with Mark Felt.
Bernstein wrote a memoir, a "pained, loving, intensely felt account of his parents' ordeal, and his own emotional upheaval, during President Harry Truman's loyalty purges." He has also written a biography of Hillary Rodham Clinton, A Woman In Charge: The Life of Hillary Rodham Clinton, published by Alfred A. Knopf on June 5, 2007.
He is a contributing editor to Vanity Fair magazine.
