<mask> (born September 20, 1954) is an American investment banker who has served as senior chairman of Goldman Sachs since 2019, and chairman and chief executive from 2006 until the end of 2018. Previous to leading Goldman Sachs, he was the company's president and chief operating officer (COO) from 2004 to 2006, serving under then-CEO Henry Paulson. Born and raised in New York City, Blankfein attended Harvard University for his undergraduate and law school studies before briefly entering private law practice. In 1982, he became a precious metals salesman at J. Aron & Co., a small commodities trading firm which was acquired by Goldman in 1981. After leading Goldman's currency and commodities divisions from 1994 to 1997 he was named heir apparent despite ranking third in the corporate hierarchy. He served as the president and chief operating officer from 2004 to his ascension to chief executive. Almost immediately after Blankfein assumed the head of the company, the financial crisis of 2007–08 hit the banking industry.His role and handling of the crisis was widely praised and criticized by media outlets, making him a public figure. After the Federal Reserve implemented dovish monetary policies and the U.S. Treasury bailed out the company, Blankfein took advantage of low interest rates to undercut competition from other investment banks and established Goldman Sachs as the second largest investment bank in the U.S. as others either went bankrupt or fell to acquisition. Blankfein was twice named one of the most influential people in the world by Time magazine and won the Financial Times Person of the Year award in 2009. According to Bloomberg News, his net worth is estimated to be US$1.1 billion as of July 2015. His salary at Goldman Sachs in 2018 was estimated to be $24 million. Early life and career
<mask> <mask> was born in The Bronx borough of New York City to a low-income, Jewish family on September 20, 1954. His father, <mask>, was a clerk with the U.S.Postal Service branch in the Manhattan borough of New York City and his mother was a receptionist. He was raised in the Linden Houses, a housing project in the East New York section of Brooklyn. He received primary and secondary education in New York City's public schools graduating valedictorian at Thomas Jefferson High School in 1971. He went on to attend Harvard College where he lived in Winthrop House and graduated with an A.B. in history in 1975. After graduating college, he attended Harvard Law School where he received a J.D. degree in 1978.Blankfein first worked for the law firms Proskauer Rose and then Donovan, Leisure, Newton & Irvine. In 1982, he joined the commodities trading firm J. Aron & Co. as a precious metals salesman in its London office, after J. Aron was acquired by the investment bank, Goldman Sachs. Goldman Sachs

Blankfein joined  J. Aron & Co. in 1982, after it had been acquired by Goldman Sachs in 1981. When then chairman Stephen Friedman appointed Henry Paulson as his successor, Blankfein was soon tasked with managing or co-managing the company's currency and commodities divisions from 1994 to 1997. After Paulson consolidated control of Goldman, he identified Blankfein as his heir apparent, despite Blankfein ranking third in the corporate hierarchy behind two co-presidents. In 2004, Blankfein was promoted to president and chief operating officer, a position he served in until June 2006. As president, he oversaw the 2000s commodities boom and positioned Goldman to take advantage of rising commodity prices.On May 30, 2006, U.S. President George W. Bush nominated Paulson to serve as the 74th United States Secretary of the Treasury which prompted Paulson to establish a succession plan. Shortly after Paulson was sworn in, Blankfein was asked to serve as chairman and chief executive officer in July 2006. 2007–08 financial crisis
During the 2007–08 financial crisis, many financial institutions that had dealings in subprime mortgages received a high level of public attention. Goldman Sachs served as a market maker that dealt with financial products that held subprime mortgages. During late 2008, the crisis led the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates and the U.S. Treasury to increase public spending in private banks. Following the collapse of Lehman Brothers, and the government bailout of Goldman, Blankfein used the low interest rates and government assistance to undercut competition from other investment banks and established Goldman Sachs as the second largest investment bank in the U.S. as others either went bankrupt or fell to acquisition. In 2009, he was named Financial Times Person of the Year.His citation noted that "his bank stuck to its strengths, unashamedly [took] advantage of the low interest rates and diminished competition resulting from the crisis to make big trading profits." On January 13, 2010, Blankfein voluntarily testified before the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission that he considered Goldman Sachs's role as primarily market maker, not a creator of the product (i.e., subprime mortgage-related securities). Blankfein testified once more before Congress in April 2010 at a hearing of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. He said that Goldman Sachs had no moral or legal obligation to inform their clients they were betting against the products they were selling to them because it was not acting in a fiduciary role. Senator Carl Levin accused Blankfein of misleading Congress; however, no perjury charges were brought against Blankfein. Nevertheless, as a precaution Blankfein hired Reid Weingarten, a high-profile defense lawyer who represented former WorldCom CEO Bernard Ebbers and former Enron accounting officer Richard Causey. Two months later, after the publicity of the testimony increased his public status, he was listed as #43 on Forbes Magazine's List of The World's Most Powerful People in November 2011.Firm employment
On March 14, 2012, Greg Smith, a former Goldman executive, wrote a widely circulated op-ed for The New York Times titled "Why I Am Leaving Goldman Sachs", in which he heavily criticized the firm's top leadership and Blankfein in particular for sidelining the interests of the client. Smith claimed that employees were promoted for unloading less profitable products on clients, for trading products that maximized Goldman Sachs' profits, not their clients, and trading illiquid, opaque products. Smith's op-ed was criticized by many, particularly because he worked at Goldman for 12 years before deciding to quit because of moral objections. In February 2018, to counter low sales and trading profits, Blankfein instituted new hiring priorities. He instructed human resource managers at the firm to focus on employment candidates who were "strategists" or "strats," i.e., highly quantitative and technologically proficient. On March 15, 2018, Blankfein issued an internal memo advocating for complete gender parity among its workforce. He stated: "At Goldman Sachs we pay women and men in similar roles with similar performance equally.However, the real issue for our firm and many corporations is the under-representation of women and diverse professionals both in magnitude and levels of seniority. We have made some progress, but we have significant work to do, and we, as leaders of our firm, are committed to doing this critical work." Leadership style
Research published at the University of Oxford characterizes Blankfein's leadership style as paradigmatic of "founder centrism" – which is a founder's mindset, an ethical disposition towards the shareholder collective, and an intense focus on exponential value creation. Compensation
Blankfein's compensation at Goldman Sachs has been at the center of controversy and interest to financial reporters and the general public. He was paid a base salary of $600,000 with a total compensation package of $54.4 million in 2006 as the highest-paid executive on Wall Street. His bonus reflected the performance of Goldman Sachs, which reported record net earnings of $9.5 billion. The compensation included a cash bonus of $27.3 million, with the rest paid in stock and options.A year later, he received total compensation of $53.9 million, which included a base salary of $600,000, a cash bonus of $26.9 million, stocks granted of $15.5 million and options granted of $10.4 million. On April 7, 2009, he recommended guidelines to overhaul executive compensation. According to The New York Times, he said that lessons from the global financial crisis included the need to "apply basic standards to how we compensate people in our industry". He received US$23 million in salary and bonuses in 2015, which was slightly down from the US$24 million he earned in 2014 from Goldman Sachs. According to the Financial Times, Blankfein earned an estimated $22.3 million in 2016. Succession
On March 9, 2018, The Wall Street Journal reported that Blankfein would step down from leading Goldman Sachs by the end of the year. Later that day, Blankfein tweeted "It's the @WSJ's announcement...not mine.I feel like Huck Finn listening to his own eulogy." On March 12, Goldman announced that Harvey Schwartz, the company's co-chief operating officer and president would be resigning, leaving David Solomon as the second-in-command. Hours after the announcement, media outlets–both domestic and international–informally designated Solomon as Blankfein's heir apparent. It was announced in July 2018 that Solomon would become CEO on October 1, 2018 and chairman by the end of 2018. Political positions
Blankfein has self-identified as "a registered Democrat, and a Rockefeller Republican ... conservative on fiscal issues and more liberal on social issues". Blankfein contributes to mostly Democratic party candidates. He donated $4,600 to Democratic Party candidate Hillary Clinton in 2007, and to the Senate re-election campaigns for the Republicans Rob Portman and Roy Blunt in 2015.During the Obama administration, he visited the White House a total of 14 times. On July 18, 2012 after meeting with Barack Obama's chief of staff, Jack Lew, he was asked whether he had any aspiration to go into government like predecessors Hank Paulson and Robert Rubin. "I have aspirations to be desired," he replied. During the 2016 presidential election, presidential candidate Bernie Sanders named Blankfein as an example of corporate greed in January 2016. Blankfein responded that Sanders' campaign had "the potential to be a dangerous moment." Blankfein endorsed Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton in the run-up for the 2016 U.S. presidential election. Social issues
He is a supporter of gay marriage and has been a spokesman for the Human Rights Campaign, an advocacy group for LGBTQ civil rights.British libor rates
At the start of 2012, an international inquiry into the average of interest rates of London known as the London Interbank Offered Rate (Libor), found that there was systemic manipulation by various bulge bracket banks for profit. The ensuing July 2012 Libor scandal prompted Blankfein to note that the general distrust of the financial world was worsened: "There was this huge hole to dig out of in terms of getting trust back and now it's just that much deeper." Environment
On June 1, 2017, Blankfein posted his first ever tweet, despite joining Twitter in 2011. He condemned President Donald Trump's withdrawal from the Paris Accord, saying "Today's decision is a setback for the environment and for the U.S.'s leadership position in the world. #ParisAgreement". Coronavirus pandemic
During the coronavirus pandemic, Blankfein consistently and repeatedly called for loosening coronavirus response measures and reopening the economy. In March 2020, he said “extreme measures to flatten the virus ‘curve’” were sensible “for a time” but that they could crush the economy.He said, “Within a very few weeks let those with a lower risk to the disease return to work.” In May 2020, amid reopenings of the economy, Blankfein said that the U.S. would have to suffer through a spike in coronavirus cases because the U.S. could not provide additional coronavirus-related stimulus. At the time, he wrote, "Is the public health benefit from broad lockdowns at this point worth such extreme damage to livelihoods?" CBS News described Blankfein as "a leading spokesperson" for the "reopen the economy" movement. Wealth tax
Blankfein opposes a wealth tax on billionaires. In 2019, while criticizing Elizabeth Warren's wealth tax, he alluded to her claimed Native American heritage, saying "Maybe tribalism is just in her DNA." Under her wealth tax proposal, Blankfein would have owed more than $30 million per year in taxes on his estimated $1.1 billion wealth. Blankfein who earned $24 million from Goldman Sachs in 2018 criticized the notion that CEOs are overpaid.In 2019, he said he felt a "lack of appreciation" in society for Wall Streeters. Philanthropy
Blankfein's total compensation from 2000 to 2009 was estimated to be around $240 million. During this time period he personally donated $11 million (4.58% of his total compensation) to charitable organizations. His joint charity foundation, the Lloyd and Laura Blankfein Foundation, donated $620,000 to Harvard Law School, $500,000 to the Ethical Culture Fieldston School, $50,000 to Barnard College, $46,500 to the Robin Hood Foundation, and $10,000 to Carnegie Hall in fiscal year 2010. He serves on the board of directors of the Partnership for New York City, and on the board of overseers of the Weill Cornell Medical College. Personal life
Blankfein is married to Laura Jacobs, an attorney and the daughter of Norman S. Jacobs, the editor-in-chief of the Foreign Policy Association publications. The couple have two sons, Alexander and Jonathan, and a daughter, Rachel.On September 22, 2015, Blankfein was diagnosed with a form of lymphoma. He received multiple rounds of treatment of chemotherapy and by October 2016 was in remission. See also

<mask> (June 30, 1901 – March 26, 1977) was an American writer, intellectual and scholar. A communist political activist during his early years, Herberg gained wider public recognition as a social philosopher and sociologist of religion, as well as a Jewish theologian. He was a leading conservative thinker during 1950s and an important contributor to the National Review magazine. Biography

Early years

<mask>, commonly known as "<mask>," was born on June 30, 1901 to a Jewish family in the shtetl of Lyakhavichy, Belarus, located near the city of Minsk in what was then part of the Russian Empire. His father, <mask> (1874-1938) and mother, the former Sarah Wolkow (1872-1942) were themselves born in the same provincial village. Although no records remain to document the family's financial status, <mask>'s biographer indicates that the family was not impoverished, with his father the recipient of a gymnasium education and successful enough as an electrical contractor to pay for the family's emigration from the anti-semitic Tsarist regime to a new life in America in 1904. Arriving in New York City, the <mask> family took up residence in an poor Jewish neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York.The family's economic position deteriorated in America, however, and <mask>'s parents were divorced about ten years after arriving in the United States, with <mask> and his younger brother raised by his mother, who earned money as a housekeeper and small-scale manufacturer of knit fabric belts. The boys aided the family income by helping with belt-making, although a very high priority was placed by his mother on education, and great financial sacrifices were made to ensure that the two boys stayed on an academically-oriented path. <mask> attended public school in Brooklyn, entering the prestigious Boys' High School in February 1915. During his high school years, Herberg demonstrated great capacity as a student, studying mathematics, physics, German, Hebrew, and French, while writing poetry in his spare time. Herberg graduated from Boys' High School in June 1918 and entered the tuition-free City College that same fall. While at City College, Herberg studied mathematics, English literature, and various physical sciences, developing a keen interest in psychology and the writings of Sigmund Freud. While his grades in these subjects were above average, he had difficulty with requirements in physical education and exhibited an antipathy to required courses in military science.<mask> would be suspended from City College in the fall of 1920 due to frequent absences from military science class, accentuated by an altercation by the officer in charge of the course. <mask> would finish his career at City College having completed 94 of the 131.5 credits needed for graduation. Although he never graduated from the Baccalaureate program at City College, Herberg would later falsely claim to have degrees from Columbia University, including a PhD in 1932. However, he later received three honorary doctorates, the first in 1956. Political radicalism

The exact timetable of <mask>'s radicalization is unclear; according to his brother, <mask>, <mask>'s difficulty with the military science officer, his subsequent dismissal from college, and the troubled financial situation of his family led him to the ideas of revolutionary socialism. Be that as it may, by 1925 <mask> was a prominent member of the Young Workers League (YWL) — youth section of the Workers (Communist) Party — and a contributor to the group's weekly newspaper, The Young Worker. In the fall of 1925, <mask> was elected a delegate by YWL District 2 (New York City) to the organization's 3rd National Convention, held in Chicago.The 3rd Convention of the YWL elected Herberg to the governing National Executive Committee, as part of which he served as director of "Agitprop" (Agitation and Propaganda). <mask> was also named a member of a four-member editorial committee for The Young Worker, taking over as chief editor of that publication for acting editor Max Shachtman effective with the issue of November 7, 1925. In 1925, Herberg married a YWL comrade, the former Anna Thompson, a resident of Brownsville, Brooklyn. The couple would become intellectually compatible throughout <mask>'s long ideological journey from communist youth journalist to conservative political writer and prominent Jewish theologian. The couple did not have children. Following the split of party leader Jay Lovestone and his cothinkers in 1929, <mask> remained loyal to them, a decision earning his expulsion from the party on September 10, 1929. Thereafter <mask> joined the so-called Lovestoneites, remaining with that organization until its termination at the end of 1940, serving as editor of the group's weekly newspaper, Workers Age.Protestant, Catholic, Jew

He later turned away from Marxism and became a religious conservative, founding the quarterly Judaism with Robert Gordis and Milton R. Konvitz. During the 1960s, he was the religion editor of the conservative journal National Review, and he also taught at Drew University. <mask>'s 1955 book Protestant, Catholic, Jew: An Essay in American Religious Sociology created a sociological framework for the study of religion in the United States. Herberg demonstrated how immigration and American ethnic culture were reflected in religious movements and institutions. It has been described as "one of the most influential books ever written about American religion." During the 1950s, that book and the 1951 essay Judaism and Modern Man set out influential positions on Judaism and on the American religious tradition in general. <mask> also wrote that anti-Catholicism is the antisemitism of secular Jewish intellectuals."Cut flower culture"

<mask> is credited with coining the phrase "cut flower culture" to describe the spiritual rootlessness of modern European and American societies. The epithet is typically taken to imply that these societies cannot long survive without being regrafted onto their Judeo-Christian roots. In Judaism and Modern Man, Herberg wrote:
The attempt made in recent decades by secularist thinkers to disengage the moral principles of western civilization from their scripturally based religious context, in the assurance that they could live a life of their own as "humanistic" ethics, has resulted in our "cut flower culture." Cut flowers retain their original beauty and fragrance, but only so long as they retain the vitality that they have drawn from their now-severed roots; after that is exhausted, they wither and die. So with freedom, brotherhood, justice, and personal dignity — the values that form the moral foundation of our civilization. Without the life-giving power of the faith out of which they have sprung, they possess neither meaning nor vitality. Opposition to Civil Rights Movement

In his September 7, 1965 National Review article, "'Civil Rights' and Violence: Who Are the Guilty Ones?", Herberg wrote of his opposition or skepticism towards the Civil Rights Movement, feeling, like many of his colleagues at National Review at the time, that the civil rights campaign was moving too quickly and broke up the fabric of American society in an overly socially disruptive manner, not friendly to proper social cohesion. They supported what is often termed the Booker T. Washington position of "gradual reform." Final years, death, and legacy

<mask>'s final published work saw print in the middle of 1973. From that time his health deteriorated steadily, culminating with the discovery of an inoperable brain tumor. <mask> died on March 26, 1977; he was 75 years old at the time of his death. <mask>'s memorial service was held in the Great Hall of Drew University in Madison, New Jersey, and was attended by a throng of rabbis, professors, and former students and political associates. <mask> was buried in Morris Plains, New Jersey, next to the grave of his previously departed wife, Anna.<mask> is remembered as a prominent traditionalist conservative and contributor to traditionalist publications such as Russell Kirk's Modern Age and to <mask>. Buckley, Jr.'s leading conservative magazine National Review, which published a special issue in August 1977 in <mask>'s honor. Footnotes

texts:
<mask> (born 19 January 1958 in Burgsvik, Gotland, Sweden), († February 26, 2019, Essen, Germany) was a German artist. He lived and worked in Düsseldorf. Life
Geismar studied from 1979 to 1980 at the Justus-Liebig Universität in Giessen and at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum. He was interested in the topics of animation, drawing, psychology and sociology. From 1980 to 1986 he studied at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf at Fritz Schwegler and Irmin Kamp. In the following years 1986 to 1988 he studied at the New School of Social Research and at the Parsons School of Design in New York City. His teachers were, inter alia, Richard van Buren and Ronald Bladen.His main areas in New York were fine arts, art history and architecture with the conclusion MFA (Master of Fine Arts). As early as 1985 he founded A.T.W. - Around the world (30) - a global forum for interdisciplinary exchange. Since then he has worked internationally on numerous projects and symposia together with authors, scientists, artists, dancers and musicians. Since 1995 he has been a lecturer and visiting professor at various colleges and art schools in Europe, Asia and the United States. Work
The work of <mask> Geismar reaches out from the painting, on installations, video art and collaborative projects with artists from different sectors. For him, all materials and objects are used to turn them into art."There is a very down to-earth, do-it-yourself aesthetics at play in the works of Geismar, an elegant performance refreshing in a world dominated by the values of money, bling and all of the materialistic accoutrements of our time. These works could be so fleeting that nothing more than a strong gust of wind could completely dispere with an institution's worth of art. The efforts of Geismar are very much of the ilk inherent in the sentiment of Jasper Johns: to take an object, do something else. The context of Geismar's efforts are less to be seen in galleries than in public spaces, as this is a very open and generous art form, to be embraced from the mind and heart instead from the wallet alone." Kenny Schachter in "The Red Line".. (1a)

<mask> (27 June 1937 – 25 October 1975), nicknamed Vlado (that is a usual Croatian abbreviation for the name <mask>) by his family and friends, was a Brazilian journalist, university professor and playwright of Croatian Jewish origin. He also developed a taste for photography, because of his film projects. Herzog was a member of the Brazilian Communist Party and was active in the civil resistance movement against the Brazilian military government. In October 1975, <mask>, then editor in chief of TV Cultura, was tortured to death by the political police of the military dictatorship, which later staged his suicide. It took 37 years before his death certificate was revised to say that he had in fact died as a result of torture by the army at DOI-CODI. His death had a great impact on the Brazilian society, marking the beginning of a wave of action towards the redemocratization process of the country. Biography

Early life
<mask> was born in Osijek, Kingdom of Yugoslavia province of Sava Banovina (currently Croatia) on 27 June 1937, to Zigmund and Zora Herzog, a Croatian Jewish family who emigrated to Brazil in the early 1940s, to escape Nazi and Ustashe persecution.Education and career
<mask> received a bachelor's degree in Philosophy from the University of São Paulo in 1959. After his graduation, he worked as a journalist in the major media outlets in Brazil, notably in the newspaper O Estado de S. Paulo. During that period he decided to use "<mask>" instead of "Vlado" as his first name, because he felt that his real name sounded extremely exotic in Brazil. Following the 1965 right wing coup d'état <mask> together with his wife Clarice Ribeiro Chaves, moved to Britain, where for three years he worked in London for the BBC. They returned to Brazil in late 1968. In the 1970s Herzog became the editor-in-chief of TV Cultura, a public TV station managed by the São Paulo State government. He also became a journalism professor at the University of São Paulo School of Communication and Arts and at Fundação Armando Alvares Penteado's Journalism course.Alongside this, he developed a career as a playwright, mixing with the artistic and theater Intelligentsia of Brazil. Later in his life, Herzog became active in the civil resistance movement against the military dictatorship in Brazil, as a member of the Brazilian Communist Party (). As a news director at the TV station, Herzog advocated the responsibility of journalists to society and reported on the first decade of the Brazilian military dictatorship. Military intelligence spies working inside the TV station reported to their handlers that Herzog is "a problem for the military regime." Arrest and death

On 24 October 1975 – when Herzog was already editor-in-chief of TV Cultura – Brazilian Army agents summoned him to testify about his connections with the then outlawed PCB Party. The following day, Herzog went to the DOI-CODI in order to comply with the summons. This meeting however, was actually a ruse to conduct an interrogation of Herzog, wherein he was detained, beaten and tortured.He was arrested with other two journalists, Jorge Duque Estrada Benigno and Rodolfo Konder, who later confirmed the treatment he received. On 25 October, Herzog's body was found hanging in his prison cell. Before revision, his death certificate stated "suicide by hanging". According to opposition, the DOI-CODI officers would have placed his body in the position it was found in order to inform the press that he had committed suicide. Aftermath
<mask> was married to advertising agent Clarice <mask>, with whom he had two young children. Three years later, she was able to legally blame the state for the death of her husband. Still unable to cope with Herzog's death, she has said that "Vlado would contribute more to society if he were alive".The death of <mask> boosted the movement against the military dictatorship in Brazil. Generating a wave of protests from the international press, and initiating a process in defense of human rights in Latin America,

The autopsy was inconclusive, but at the time forensic pathologists were members of the police and systematically produced false autopsy reports in cases of death by torture. Public opinion, however, never accepted this version and his murder generated national indignation. The president of the Republic at the time, General Ernesto Geisel was also upset by these and other actions by what he called the "criminals" of the largely parallel power of military-directed violent political repression. As a result, he ordered a clean-up and reduction in these activities, firing the main ultra-right wing general behind it, Ednardo D'Ávila Melo. According to Henry Sobel, the chief rabbi of the main synagogue of São Paulo at the time, the murder of Herzog changed the country. "It was the catalyst of the eventual restoration of democracy.His death will always be a painful memory of a shady period of repression, a perpetual echo of the voice of freedom, which will never be kept silent". After finding out that Herzog's body bore the marks of torture, Rabbi Sobel decided that he should be buried in the center of the cemetery rather than in a corner, as Jewish tradition demands in cases of suicide. This was made public and completely destroyed the official version of suicide. Officially, the first irrefutable proof that Herzog's death was not a suicide was reported in Fernando Pacheco Jordão's Dossier Herzog - Prisão, Tortura e Morte no Brasil. The author points out that the picture provided by the military as proof of Herzog's suicide portrayed the prisoner hanging by his prison belt tied in his cell's bars with his feet touching the floor and his knees notably bent. By the time of <mask>'s death, Brazil was in extreme tension. The military had been in power for over ten years and the Brazilian population was constantly in fear.<mask> was the thirty-eighth person to "commit suicide" after being arrested by the military. The first thirty-seven however, were not as renowned as Herzog was. Precisely because he was a public figure his death attracted public and governmental attention to the case. His death is seen today as the beginning of the end of the Brazilian military dictatorship. Herzog has become a symbol of the fight for democracy in Brazil and has been honoured in many ways, such as by attributing it to the street where the TV Cultura is located in São Paulo. In addition, a public prize for journalism devoted to amnesty and human rights has been established with his name (Prêmio de Jornalismo <mask>zog de Anistia e Direitos Humanos). Litigation and investigation
Later, in a civil lawsuit filed by his widow against the government, a federal tribunal recognized his wrongful death and granted monetary damages to Herzog's family.A documentary by director João Batista de Andrade, titled Herzog - 30 anos, was filmed in 2005. In the same year, new photographs of a still-living and fully naked Herzog in the prison cell were released on the Internet, authorized by a high-ranking military officer in president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's office. At the request of several religious and human rights groups, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, an independent arm of the Organization of American States, investigated the conflicting circumstances surrounding the death of Vladmir Herzog, and found that the Brazilian junta arrested, tortured and murdered Herzog because of his activities as a journalist. A new death certificate was issued 37 years after Herzog's death to indicate that he died "due to physical torture at the facilities of DOI-Codi in the 2nd Army in São Paulo." His previous certificate indicated a possible suicide. Ivo <mask>, son of <mask>, delivered petitions for José Maria Marin's removal from the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) and from the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Ivo cited the speeches Marin delivered as congressional representative that praised Sérgio Fleury, who was head of the Department of Political and Social Order (Departamento de Ordem Politica e Social) during Brazil's military dictatorship, and for criticizing Herzog in speeches from 1975.Legacy
In 2009, over 30 years after <mask>'s death, the Vladimir Herzog Institute was founded. Its aims are to archive material about Herzog, to promote debate about the role of journalists and new media, and to award the Vladimir Herzog Prize for Amnesty and Human Rights to journalists and human rights activists.

Notable interviews

<mask> broke the news in a live interview on ESPN with Rams running back, and single season rushing record holder, Eric Dickerson, on being traded from the Los Angeles Rams to the Indianapolis Colts on Halloween 1987. That interview was hailed by ESPN anchor Tom Mees, as "the night that ESPN SportsCenter truly arrived and was born. We have now gone from a highlight service and interviews to a legitimate news gathering and breaking news operation." On March 22, 1989, <mask> got the exclusive and only television interview with NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle, in Palm Springs, California, when he suddenly decided to retire. On October 5, 1993, on CBS, during the White Sox vs Blue Jays playoff game, <mask> reported during the game that Bulls minority owner Eddie Einhorn told him that Michael Jordan would retire from the NBA Chicago Bulls the next day.Jordan was in attendance at the game with Einhorn. <mask> followed Jordan out of the stadium to the parking lot with a camera crew and Jordan acknowledged and confirmed to <mask> that what Einhorn had told him was true, and that he would retire. During game 4 of the 1996 Eastern Conference Finals, <mask> interviewed Leonard Armato, Shaquille O'Neal's agent, while the game was going on with questions about the future of Shaquille O'Neal and then head coach Brian Hill. After a series of tough questions, <mask> ended the interview by saying to Armato "try to enjoy the game now that you've been grilled!" The interview served as a platform for O'Neal and set the stage as a month later O'Neal left the Magic and signed with the Lakers. During the 1997 NBA Finals, <mask> interviewed Dennis Rodman during an NBA on NBC segment. After repeatedly questioning Rodman about his comments about the Mormon religion when (the Chicago Bulls were in Salt Lake City to play the Jazz during the Finals), Rodman finally had enough of the questions, walked off the interview set with tears in his eyes and removed the microphone without assistance.NBC showed the ending of the interview as it happened during the NBA Finals pre-game show. On June 24, 2000 in Glasgow, Scotland, <mask> did the interview with Mike Tyson after his swift knockout of Lou Savarese where Tyson proclaimed he "wanted to eat (Lennox Lewis's) children." <mask> has been known for his close relationship with Kobe Bryant, which showed in the immediate aftermath of Bryant's sexual assault case (the night when the news broke, <mask> appeared on SportsCenter in defense of Bryant's character) and in several sideline interviews. It was <mask> whom Bryant called to vent about teammate Shaquille O'Neal in October of that year (a phone call that started one of O'Neal and Bryant's worst disagreements). <mask>'s interviews with maligned baseball player Barry Bonds in 2006 and 2007 were the only one-on-one interviews Bonds granted after breaking both Babe Ruth's and Hank Aaron's home run records. In both interviews, he denied using steroids or other performance-enhancing drugs. On July 8, 2010, <mask> interviewed LeBron James when he revealed his 2010 decision to sign with the Miami Heat as a free agent on a live ESPN special called The Decision.On May 7, 2015, <mask> interviewed New England Patriot quarterback and 4 time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady at Salem State College, in Salem, MA., regarding Brady's involvement and the Patriots role in Deflategate.

On April 30, 2018, <mask> interviewed Brady in Los Angeles. In response to a question to if the Patriots had the appropriate gratitude for his achievements, Brady replied, "I plead the fifth.”

The most notable interview of <mask>'s sportscasting career occurred with former baseball player Pete Rose.During Game 2 of the 1999 World Series, Rose was introduced as a member of the Major League Baseball All-Century Team. After the ceremony, <mask> (who was covering the series for NBC) asked Rose about the Dowd Report's allegations that he had gambled on major league baseball games, which he repeatedly denied:

<mask>: Pete, let me ask you now. It seems as though there is an opening, the American public is very forgiving. Are you willing to show contrition, admit that you bet on baseball and make some sort of apology to that effect? Pete Rose: Not at all, <mask>. I'm not going to admit to something that didn't happen. I know you're getting tired of hearing me say that.But I appreciate the ovation. I appreciate the American fans voting me on the All-Century Team. I'm just a small part of a big deal tonight. <mask>: With the overwhelming evidence in that report, why not make that step...

Rose: No. This is too much of a festive night to worry about that because I don't know what evidence you're talking about. I mean, show it to me...

<mask>: Well, the Dowd Report says- but we don't want to debate that, Pete. Rose: Well, why not?Why do we want to believe everything he says? <mask>: You signed a paper acknowledging the ban. Why did you sign it if you didn't agree with it? Rose: It also says I can apply for reinstatement after one year, if you remember correctly. In the press conference, as a matter of fact, my statement was "I can't wait for my little girl to be a year old so I can apply for reinstatement". At my press conference. So you forgot to add that clause that was in there.<mask>: Well, you have reapplied. ... You've applied for reinstatement in 1997. Have you heard back from Commissioner Selig? Rose: No, and that kind of surprises me. It's only been two years, though, and he's got a lot of things on his mind. But I hope to some day. <mask>: Pete, it's been 10 years since you've been allowed on the field.Obviously, the approach that you have taken has not worked. Why not, at this point, take a different approach? Rose: Well, when you say it hadn't worked, what do you exactly mean? <mask>: You're not allowed in baseball. You're not allowed to earn a living in the game you love. And you're not allowed to be in the Hall of Fame. Rose: Well, I took that approach and that was to apply for reinstatement.I hope Bud Selig considers that and gives me an opportunity. I won't need a third chance. All I need is a second chance. <mask>: Pete, those who will hear this tonight will say you have been your own worst enemy and continue to be. How do you respond to that? Rose: In what way are you talking about? <mask>: By not acknowledging what seems to be overwhelming evidence.Rose: Yeah, I'm surprised you're bombarding me like this. I mean I'm doing an interview with you on a great night, a great occasion, a great ovation. Everybody seems to be in a good mood. And you're bringing up something that happened 10 years ago. <mask>: I'm bringing it up because I think people would like to see ... Pete, we've got to go, we've got a game.Rose: This is a prosecutor's brief, not an interview, and I'm very surprised at you. I am, really.<mask>: Some would be surprised that you didn't take the opportunity.

After conducting the interview, <mask> offered no apology for his line of questioning toward Rose:

I stand by it, and I think it was absolutely a proper line of questioning. . .I don't have an agenda against Pete Rose . . . Pete was the one who started asking me questions. I definitely wouldn't have gone (that) direction if he had backed off. My intent was to give Pete an opportunity to address issues that have kept him out of baseball. I thought he might have had a change of heart. . . . He hadn't had an opening in 10 years. . . . If I had let that go, all of you (reporters) would have had me on here today for a totally different reason.However, after the fallout of heavy criticism toward him & NBC that ensued from the interview, <mask> offered the following apology on-air prior to the start of Game 3:

(I) thought it was important to ask Pete Rose if this was the right moment for him to make an apology. If in doing so the interview went on too long and took some of the joy of the occasion, then I want to say to baseball fans everywhere that I am very sorry about this. Despite <mask>'s pre-game apology, New York Yankees outfielder Chad Curtis snubbed <mask>'s request for an on-field interview with him right after hitting the game-winning walk-off home run:

<mask>: Tell us about that pitch.Chad Curtis: I can't do it. As a team, we kind of decided, because of what happened with Pete, we're not going to talk out here on the field.Curtis claimed it was a team decision not to speak with <mask>, but Yankee manager Joe Torre later suggested that Curtis had acted independently. On January 8, 2004, more than four years after the interview, Rose's autobiography My Prison Without Bars'' was published. In that book, he finally admitted publicly to betting on baseball games. Personal life
He is married to his wife, Frann.He has no children. References

<mask> (born in Paris, May 16, 1963) is a best-selling French novelist and the author of Life of David Hockney: A Novel (Other Press, 2019), The Story of Jane (Simon & Schuster, 2001), and 12 other novels published by Éditions Gallimard between 1990 and 2018. Some of her novels  (Jouir, La Haine de la famille, Confessions d'un radine, and New York, Journal d’un cycle) are described as autofiction, a French literary movement that is a hybrid of fiction and autobiography. Others are more romantic, but all share some recurring themes: the family, desire, and cultural conflicts between France and America. She stands out from her contemporaries with a direct, incisive, visual form of writing, marked by the influence of Anglo-Saxon novelists. <mask>'s work has been translated into 22 languages (Belarussian, Bulgarian, Czech, English, German, Greek, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin, Norwegian, Persian, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbo-Croatian, Slovenian, Spanish, Taiwanese, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese). Early life and education
Cusset is the daughter of a Breton Catholic father and a Parisian Jewish mother. She is the sister of historian and philosopher <mask>, playwright and philosopher <mask>, and medical doctor <mask>.She spent her youth in Paris, where she attended Lycée La Fontaine, then Lycée Louis-le-Grand. A former student of the École normale supérieure, she completed her Agrégation to become a professor of classics. <mask> holds two PhD's: one from Paris Diderot University (Paris VII), where she wrote a dissertation on Marquis de Sade (La raison et la fiction dans L'Histoire de Juliette), and one from Yale University, where she wrote a dissertation on the 18th-century libertine novel (No Tomorrow: The Ethics of Pleasure in the French Enlightenment). She taught 18th-century French literature at Yale University from 1991 to 2002, before turning to writing novels full-time. Based in the United States for the past 30 years (with interludes in Prague, 1997–1999, and London, 2011–2013), she now lives in Manhattan with her American husband and daughter and spends her summers in Brittany, France. Literary career
<mask> entered the French literary scene with La Blouse Roumaine, published in 1990 by Philippe Sollers in his collection L'Infini at Éditions Gallimard. The novel explores the adulterous affair of a French woman married to an American.She thinks she can control her adventure but finds herself caught up in her own game, abandoned at the same time by both her lover and her husband. Her second novel, En toute innocence, published in 1995, was a finalist for the Prix Femina and a great critical success. It recounts, in the first person, the anxieties of a young girl who wants to lose her virginity and who, three times, encounters death in her path. The short book is written in a single breath, with a jerky rhythm. À vous, published in 1996, is a novel inspired by the character of Philippe Sollers and his philosophy of pleasure. The narrator, Marie (a recurring name in <mask>'s novels), addresses herself from the United States to her Parisian spiritual mentor whose silence obsesses her, whose contempt she imagines, while seeking the means to finish off with him. Jouir, published in 1997, was <mask>'s first autofiction novel.Through a mosaic of scenes related to sexuality, Jouir sketches the portrait, in raw and incisive language, of a woman caught between the strength of her desire and her fear of betraying. The book was badly received by critics when it came out, who either ignored it or attacked it violently. With Le problème avec Jane, published in 1999, <mask> wrote a more traditional whodunit. Jane is a young professor at a prestigious and fictitious American university that one can recognize as Yale University. One day, Jane finds at her door a manuscript entitled The Problem with Jane. As she starts to read it, she discovers that the anonymous author of the manuscript is intimately and disturbingly familiar with her professional setbacks and her marital problems. It is the story of her own life.But who is the author? An old boyfriend? A rejected lover? The husband she divorced? A jealous colleague, or one secretly in love? A friend? Praised by readers, a finalist of the Prix Medicis and the recipient of the Grand Prix des lectrices de Elle in 2000, Le problème avec Jane sold more than 200,000 copies in French.Le problème avec Jane was translated into English and published by Simon & Schuster as The Problem with Jane. La Haine de la famille, published in 2001, was acclaimed by critics and by Bernard Pivot, who presented it at the Bouillon de culture TV show on January 19, 2001, as a success story. Exploring mother-daughter relationships over the course of three generations, <mask>'s tragicomic family saga spares the reader no detail -  the wedding night of the parents, the mother's issues related to digestion, or the grandmother's agony at the hospital. The novel questions the gaze of the narrator, Marie, who is the judge of her mother. Confessions d'une radine, published in 2003, continued <mask>'s work of autofiction and self-criticism with a sequence of funny and spicy stories that probe self-hatred related to money - a topic that may be even more taboo than sex. The novel probes the instinct that drives one to save money and to be wary of the other, and which prevents one from enjoying life, rather than "spend without counting." Amours transversales, published in 2004, returns to the romantic vein of Le problème avec Jane.A narrative built upon four short stories with recurring characters, Amours transversales is about those loves that are not the ones upon which one has based one's life, but which are no less important: temporary, incidental loves that draw across our lives a transversal line. Following a silence of four years, Un brillant avenir was published in 2008 and became one of <mask>'s greatest successes to date. Selected for the second round of the Prix Medicis and the penultimate round of the Prix Goncourt, the novel won the Prix Goncourt des Lycéens, which propelled it to the best-seller lists for six months. A mix of autobiographical inspiration and novelistic writing, Un brillant avenir traces the life of a woman born in 1936 in Romania from where she eventually fled with her Jewish husband to emigrate to the United States. Hoping to offer her son a "bright future," she saw instead this future being compromised by the arrival into his life of another woman, a French daughter-in-law. New York, Journal d’un cycle, published in 2009, is a story with photos that appeared in the collection "Traits et portraits" directed by Colette Fellous at Mercure de France. This story dates back to a dozen years earlier and, by its writing, is closer to Jouir and Confessions of a radine.It describes a couple's quarrels around the desire for a child, set in a New York landscape made up of violence, intensity of movement, and unexpected apparitions. The cycle is both the narrator's menstrual cycle and the bike on which she spends her days in New York, moving fast and seeking inner peace. Une éducation catholique, published in 2014, tells the childhood story of the narrator, Marie, brought up by a practicing Catholic father and an atheist mother of Jewish origin. Starting with the narrator's religious education, the narrative broadens into a reflection on faith, emerging sexuality, and the need to create gods.
