a prizewinning reporter for the Minneapolis Tribune (1950–61), and later (from
1965) became a nationally syndicated columnist, as well as a radio commentator
and a panelist on the weekly television show Inside Washington (1967–96).
He also served as ambassador to Finland (1963–4) and as director of the US
