Mowglis Memories: Chris Hedges
Chris Hedges and I have been friends since we began at Mowglis in the early 1960s but one of my most vivid memories of those days was listening with Mr. Hart to a broadcast on National Public Radio of Chris reporting from a war zone. His look of pride in Chris and the way he shook his head in amazement at the bravery exhibited by Chris was unmistakable and left a lasting impression.
Chris Hedges (Mowglis 1964-1967 & 1970 JS) is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, war correspondent, and author of 14 books. His latest book, "Our Class: Trauma and Transformation in an American Prison" chronicles his experience teaching in a NJ prison and is an intense, at times, heartbreaking and joyous journey. I spoke with Chris about his Mowglis days and "Our Class".
