Article · Nederlands
Robert Upshur (Bob) Woodward (Geneva (Illinois), 26 maart 1943) is een van de bekendste journalisten in de Verenigde Staten, met name dankzij zijn bijdrage in het ontdekken van het Watergateschandaal van president Richard Nixon, samen met Carl Bernstein toen hij als verslaggever werkte voor The Washington Post. De krant won hiermee een Pulitzerprijs voor Public Service in 1973. In de film All the President's Men, naar het gelijknamige geruchtmakende boek uit 1974, die over het onderzoekswerk van Bernstein en Woodward gaat, wordt Woodward vertolkt door Robert Redford. Woodward werkt sinds 1971 en tot op de dag van vandaag als associate editor bij The Washington Post. In 2003 won hij een tweede Pulitzerprijs met The Washington Post (in de categorie National Reporting) voor het nieuws rondom de aanslagen van 11 september.
