Stephen Glass
Stephen Randall Glass (born September 15, 1972) is a former American journalist. He worked for The New Republic from 1995 to 1998 until an internal investigation by the magazine determined the majority of stories he wrote were either partially or entirely fabricated.
Following the journalism scandal, Glass pursued a career in law. Although he earned a Juris Doctor from Georgetown University Law Center and passed the bar in New York and California, he was unable to become a licensed attorney in either state due to concerns stemming from his scandal. Glass instead found work as a paralegal at the law firm of Carpenter, Zuckerman & Rowley, serving as the director of special projects and trial team coordinator.
Glass made a brief return to writing when he fictionalized his story in his 2003 novel The Fabulist. The same year, the scandal was dramatized in the film Shattered Glass, based on a Vanity Fair article of the same name, which stars Hayden Christensen as Glass.
