For his biographies of Robert Moses and Lyndon B. Johnson, ROBERT A. CARO has twice won the Pulitzer Prize, twice won the National Book Award, three times won the National Book Critics Circle Award, and has been awarded virtually every other literary honor for “The Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall of New York” and his four-volume biography “The Years of Lyndon Johnson.” His groundbreaking work in chronicling the lives of these powerful figures has left an indelible mark on our understanding of our city and country. In addition to his being an American literary icon, he is also a dedicated member of Stephen Wise Free Synagogue. Robert grew up on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, where he lives and works with his wife, the historian Ina Caro, who has written two classic books of her own.

During this year’s Spring Benefit, Robert will sit down for an intimate conversation with Lizzie Gottlieb, director of “Turn Every Page,” which explores the author’s 50-year relationship with his longtime editor and Lizzie’s father, Robert Gottlieb.
