Larry Rohter

In 1998, Rohter was awarded the Maria Moors Cabot Prize at Columbia University. He was also awarded the Brazilian Embratel prize, as the "Melhor correspondente estrangeiro" (best foreign correspondent). ==Personal==

Rohter is married to Clotilde Rohter. They have 2 children. He lives today in Hoboken, New Jersey". ==Criticism==

Rohter published an article titled "Brazilian Leader's Tippling Becomes National Concern", insinuating the Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva had a drinking problem that affected his presidency, citing Mr. da Silva's former running mate Leonel Brizola, among others. The article caused consternation in the Brazilian press. Rohter's visa was temporarily revoked (and quickly reinstated) by Brazil's government, an event which overshadowed much criticism of Rohter's reporting. ==Publications==
