David Halberstam

wrote many books on various subjects. I best remember him for a book he wrote about the U.S. auto industry and the rise of the Japan (and, in turn, the rise of the South Korean auto industry) called The Reckoning. It was a powerful book.

Halberstam had been on his way to an interview with football great Y.A. Tittle when he was killed. The other passengers/drivers were not seriously injured.

His brother, Michael, a cardiologist, was murdered back in 1980.
