David Halberstam won the Pulitzer Prize as a reporter in Vietnam for the New York Times, and he was one of the most important journalists who covered the civil rights movement. He wrote about things more important than sports. But Halberstam, who died today in a car crash at the age of 73, was also a sports fan through and through, and we wouldn't do him justice if we failed to acknowledge what an important part sports played to his life and work.
Halberstam's sports books include Bill Belichick: The Education of a Coach, Playing for Keeps: Michael Jordan and the World He Made, and Summer of '49. Halberstam put just as much intellectual energy into covering sports as he put into covering Vietnam, and although sports will be just a footnote in most of his obituaries, his contributions to the world of sports writing shouldn't be overlooked.
