About The Author
Margaret Roberts is a prize-winning investigative journalist and television producer. She graduated from Northwestern University and earned a master’s degree with honors in English literature at the University of Chicago.
As managing editor of Chicago Lawyer newspaper in the 1980s, Roberts conducted a death-row investigation that led to the exoneration of an innocent man. The story won Chicago’s Jacob Scher and Stick ‘O Type awards. Newsweek called it “investigative journalism at its best.”
In Washington, DC, Roberts was a top editor at National Journal and Congressional Quarterly before moving into television as news director of America’s Most Wanted.
In 2010, Roberts edited the prison memoir Deadly Secrets, Timothy McVeigh’s account of the Oklahoma City bomb plot as told to fellow death-row inmate David Hammer, an exclusive source for Blowback.
Roberts owns Rio Sierra River Resort, a hotel and writer’s retreat near California’s Sequoia National Park, where she wrote her book.
