Биография и Путь Автора
Dan Gardner is a Canadian nonfiction writer whose career joins history, law, public policy, and journalism. He studied history at York University and earned a law degree from Osgoode Hall Law School, then worked as a policy adviser in Ontario government before turning to journalism. In 1997 he joined the Ottawa Citizen, where he became a national affairs columnist and investigative feature writer. Those years were foundational: they gave him a reporter’s suspicion of dogma, a feel for how institutions actually behave, and a lasting interest in the distance between evidence, fear, and public rhetoric.
