Josh Mensch
Josh Mensch is a nonfiction writer and documentary television producer whose work centers on American history and culture. With Brad Meltzer, he coauthored the New York Times bestselling The First Conspiracy, The Lincoln Conspiracy, The Nazi Conspiracy, and The JFK Conspiracy.
传记与作者历程
Josh Mensch grew up mostly in Buffalo, New York, then went on to study at Princeton University and the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. He built his first major body of work in nonfiction television, serving as a showrunner, writer, director, and producer for outlets including PBS, the History Channel, National Geographic, Discovery, and MTV. That documentary career established the themes that would define his later books: American history, cultural memory, and the search for overlooked turning points. It also produced unusually concrete results, including two stories he wrote and directed that helped lead to the recovery of the Ground Zero 9/11 flag and Bob Dylan’s electric guitar from the 1965 Newport Folk Festival.
