With his Merry Go Round column appearing in over 80 newspapers daily, Jack Anderson is the most widely syndicated columnist in the world. Additionally, he is the best-selling author of numerous books and one of the most dynamic speakers on the nation's lecture circuit. Anderson is a legend in Journalistic circles, a champion of the common good, and the spirit of First Amendment freedom personified. The stories he delivers are often years ahead of the headlines. Where most reporters cover the news, Jack Anderson uncovers it.

He does not apologize for reporting the unvarnished truth, and his millions of readers, viewers, and listeners have come to believe that Anderson's effort preserves a healthy democracy. Public opinion has confirmed that Anderson's reports make a positive impact. When Ronald Reagan asked his private pollster, Richard Wirthlin, to determine the nation's most trusted journalist, Anderson was ranked first among the country's 254,000 journalists. In addition to his reporting activities, Anderson works with the Young Astronaut Program (which he developed to promote scientific study, encourage peace and help ensure a competitive America for generations to come) and the Citizens Against Government Waste (which he designed, along with industrialist J.

His works of fiction and non-fiction , which include Zero Time, Control, Stormin' Norman, Confessions of a Muckraker, Alice in Blunderland, The Anderson Papers, and USA: A Second Class Power?, have consistently met with rave reviews. He is a recipient of the Pulitzer Prize, and will be publishing a new book soon.
