The newspaper reminds that Bodganich, who comes from a Serb family from Chicago, is the only journalist who has won the award three times. U.S. Serb who won three Pulitzers In April this year, his collaboration with Jake Hooker on the series of reports "A toxic pipeline", won him his third accolade. The articles revealed there were toxic components in products imported from China. Now the Belgrade daily seeks to acquaint the Serbian public with the reporter, virtually unknown here. Bogdanich told Vecernje Novosti that his father was an immigrant from Serbia, who worked in Chicago's steel industry, while he and his brother also earned pocket money there, to then attend the University of Wisconsin, and study journalism. "I started working as a professional journalist in 1973. Three years later I earned my masters at the Ohio State University," he recalled. Bodganich's first Pulitzer came in 1988, when he reported for the Wall Street Journal on illegal medical labs in the United States. He won his second prize in 2005, for investigative articles on fatal railroad accidents. Now the Ministry for Diaspora plans to invite Bodganich to visit Belgrade, and present this award-winning journalist to the Serbian media and public.
