Diskussion:David Brooks (Journalist)

erste Jahre sind sehr verkuerzt

in der Deutschen Wikipediaseite steht NUR: Brooks wuchs in New York City auf, ehe er an der University of Chicago studierte.[1] 1983 graduierte er dort als Bachelor of Arts in Geschichte.[2]

wogegen David Brooks nach zB der English Wikipedia Seite ein etwas "umzugsreicheres" Leben hatte bis er an die University of Chicago ging -> geboren in Toronto Canada / erste 12 Jahre "(lower) middle-class" Nachbarschaft in NYC / mit 12 Jahren Umzug nach Philly in eine sehr gute Nachbarschaft - Vater secular Jewish, Mutter konvertierte zum Judentum und aenderte ihren Vornamen von Jane zu Sarah - siehe: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Brooks_(journalist) Brooks was born in Toronto, Canada – his father was an American citizen living in Canada at the time – and grew up in the middle-income Stuyvesant Town housing development in downtown New York City. During Brooks' childhood, his father taught English literature at New York University, while his mother studied nineteenth-century British history at Columbia. Although his family was Jewish,[7][8] Brooks himself is not especially observant.[9] As a child, he attended the Grace Church School, an independent Episcopal primary school in Greenwich Village. When he was 12, his family moved to Philadelphia. He graduated from Radnor High School (located in a prosperous Main Line suburb of Philadelphia) in 1979 and from the University of Chicago in 1983, with a degree in history.[2] His senior thesis was on popular science writer Robert Ardrey, best known for his 1966 book espousing "hard" primitivism, The Territorial Imperative: A Personal Inquiry Into the Animal Origins of Property and Nations, in which he argued that humans were descended from "killer apes."
