Within a year of working with the county paper, he was good enough to get offered a place at the “Washington Post.” Still, the editors referred him to the weekly Maryland paper the Montgomery County Sentinel. However, none of the stories he submitted was published even though the editors told him he had potential. When he was done with that, he went to Harvard Law School but instead of taking a law degree, he sent an application for a two-week unpaid internship to “The Washington Post.” However, Bob Woodward decided to study English Literature and history for his bachelor’s degree before he became a communications officer for more than five years. When he was young, he believed that he would follow his father into law when he went to Yale University. The author was brought up in the Chicago suburb of Wheaton where his father was one of the most prominent jurists in the city. He is best known for his work with Carl Bernstein in reporting on the “Watergate Scandal” for “The Washington Post” which won the paper the Pulitzer Prize.
