Autorenporträt
Dan Joseph is an editor by day and an author by night who lives in the Washington, DC, area. A Pittsburgh native and graduate of Indiana University, Dan has worked for more than 20 years at the Voice of America, most as an editor in VOA's central newsroom, running the Africa desk. His first book, Inside Al-Shabaab (co-authored with Harun Maruf), was a revealing account of the inner workings of the Somali terrorist group. His second, Last Ride of the Iron Horse, tells the tale of Lou Gehrig's final year in the Yankee lineup, 1938, as he battled the early effects of the fatal disease ALS. A member of the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR), Dan uncovered the long-lost radio clip of Gehrig saying yes, Babe Ruth DID call his shot in the 1932 World Series. He is also one of the youngest people alive to have attended a Pittsburgh Pirates World Series game. Learn more about him at DanJosephauthor.net.
