Howard Goller reported on war and peace for 18 years from the Israeli-Palestinian front line where he was Reuters Deputy Bureau Chief and served on the FPA board for 12 years, the last two as FPA Chairman championing press freedom with Israeli and Palestinian officials.

His next posting, in 2006, was to Washington to head Reuters political and general news coverage in the United States and Canada before joining a Reuters start-up tasked with reporting news for lawyers and other professionals.

In 2014, Goller moved to New York to help lead what has become the Reuters Global News Desk, most recently as Editor for Quality & Style.
