New York Times Supreme Court Reporter Retires

Linda Greenhouse, who covered the U.S. Supreme Court for The New York Times for 27 years, is retiring this week.

Here at the Supreme Court of Canada, we have had the pleasure of monitoring her articles for our current awareness service dealing with significant foreign court judgments.

She reflected on her career in Sunday’s edition of the Times in an article entitled 2,691 Decisions.

During her years covering the U.S. Supreme Court, she won a number of major journalism awards, including a Pulitzer Prize for beat reporting in 1998.

In January, she will begin a new job at Yale Law School as the Journalist in Residence.

The New York Times website offers an archive of Greenhouse’s articles.
