"People often say ‘Why do people talk to reporters?' I think because everybody has a human urge to explain themselves and what they're doing."
David Sanger covers foreign policy, globalization, nuclear proliferation, and the presidency for the The New York Times.
He has been awarded numerous honors for national security and foreign policy coverage, and has been a member of two teams that won the Pulitzer Prize.
