Ken Auletta

Ken Auletta has been on the frontlines of the new communications revolution since 1992 with his “Annals of Communications” columns and profiles for the prestigious New Yorker magazine. He is the author of eleven books, including five national bestsellers: Three Blind Mice: How the TV Networks Lost Their Way; Greed and Glory on Wall Street: The Fall of The House of Lehman; The Highwaymen: Warriors of the Information Super Highway; World War 3.0: Microsoft and Its Enemies; and Googled: The End of the World As We Know It.

Auletta was among the first to popularize the so-called information superhighway with his February 1993 profile of Barry Diller's search for something new. He has profiled the leading figures and companies of the Information Age, including Google, Bill Gates, Rupert Murdoch, AOL Time Warner, John Malone, Harvey Weinstein and The New York Times. His 2001 profile of Ted Turner won a National Magazine Award as the best profile of the year. He also covered the Microsoft antitrust trial for the magazine.

Google has arguably changed the world as we know it, as Steve Jobs did with Apple. Auletta has spent his career analyzing and reporting on what it all means and where it is going.
