Biographical notes:

Schulman was a newspaper reporter and feature writer in St. Louis, and a staff correspondent in Chicago for Time, Life and Sports Illustrated magazines. In Seattle he had responsibility for news in four states and Alaska. This was followed by a prize-winning television documentary career in the Northwest. In the late 1960s Schulman then shifted to reporting and commentary for the Louisville, Kentucky newspapers and TV-radio stations owned by the Bingham family. In that capacity he garnered a national award for one year's best TV editorial, and for eight years wrote a newspaper column that was among the nation's first in press criticism. For 10 years he was co-host of "Good Authority," a weekly program on Louisville-area radio commenting on regional happenings. His previously published works include John Sherman Cooper: Global Kentuckian and Romany Marie : the Queen of Greenwich Village. Schulman lives in Louisville with his wife, Louise.
