Fagin was inspired by science journalism after he realized political journalism was not his forte he was ready to zig when others zagged and ready to write more than the political issues other journalists were covering. If you’ve ever taken an epidemiology or environmental studies class, then you’ve most probably read “Toms River” by Dan Fagin, a book that delves into the story of Toms River, N.J., and its struggle against Ciba-Geigy, a chemical plant that greatly contributed to the town’s water pollution and poor water quality.įagin won a Pulitzer prize for his work, and has continued to follow his passion for health and science journalism through his teaching at NYU.
