Lowell Bergman (born July 24, 1945) is an American journalist, television producer, and professor of journalism. Bergman was a producer, reporter, and director of investigative reporting at ABC News. Later a producer for CBS’s 60 Minutes, he left that network in 1999 as the senior producer of investigations for CBS News. He founded the investigative reporting program at the Graduate School of Journalism at UC Berkeley, where he taught for 28 years. He was also a producer and correspondent for the PBS documentary series Frontline. Bergman retired from his teaching position in 2019. Bergman's investigation into the tobacco industry was depicted in Michael Mann’s The Insider, which was nominated for seven Academy Awards and featured Al Pacino as Bergman. From 1999 to 2008, Bergman was an investigative correspondent for The New York Times. He also formed a partnership between the Times and Frontline, leading to award-winning investigative projects across broadcast, print, and web platforms. Bergman was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Public Service in 2004 for "A Dangerous Business," a New York Times investigation into worker safety and environmental law violations in the cast-iron sewer and water pipe industry. Through the non-profit production company Investigative Studios, Bergman has continued to work on documentaries and documentary series, serving as co-executive producer with Brian Knappenberger on Netflix’s The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez and as executive producer and reporter on Agents of Chaos, a co-production with Alex Gibney’s Jigsaw Productions.
