Bob Simon Interview

AT IT TAKES: BOB SIMON'S ADVICE TO A YOUNG JOURNALIST | COLUMBIA JOURNALISM REVIEW

In 2011, Columbia Journalism School student Tamir Elterman produced this video in which he asks Simon for career advice. What Simon told Tamir was down-to-earth, witty and inspiring. We post this now, in tribute to Simon.

Professor Betsy West, who worked with Simon at CBS News, and was Tamir's professor, notes: "This piece says so much about what made Bob so great: his curiosity, generosity, courage, humility and humor. Tamir followed Bob's suggestion that he go somewhere to be a reporter: he's now working as a freelance journalist in the Middle East, producing videos for The New York Times. We are heartbroken. I have been mesmerized by the outpouring of tributes on social media. In addition to being such an amazing journalist, Bob really was beloved."
