LIU alumnus Josh Margolin (BFA in Journalism, ’92) was featured on ABC’s 20/20, providing commentary on the investigative news report, “Growing Up Buttafuoco.” The episode chronicled the 1992 shooting of Mary Jo Buttafuoco, a case that garnered national attention at the time. Margolin covered the sensational story during his senior year at LIU as part of his internship with Newsday. Following his graduation, Margolin would go on to co-win a 2005 Pulitzer Prize in Breaking News Reporting for The Star-Ledger. In 2011, he co-authored The Jersey Sting, a bestselling book about one of the biggest political corruption cases. Margolin is currently the Chief Investigative Reporter at ABC News.
