Author Bio :
Kathleen McGrory was a reporter on ProPublica’s national staff.
She and colleague Neil Bedi won the 2021 Pulitzer Prize for local reporting for an investigation that found a Florida sheriff’s office had harassed residents and profiled schoolchildren. The series prompted two federal reviews of the agency and the formation of a community coalition.
Before that, McGrory and Bedi were finalists for the 2019 Pulitzer Prize for investigative reporting for their articles about patient fatalities at a Johns Hopkins children’s hospital. That body of work led to the resignation of the hospital’s CEO and other top executives, as well as more than $40 million in settlements for affected families.
