David Michael Culhane (September 22, 1930 – February 24, 2024) was an American journalist and television news correspondent. He worked in radio, print, and television, with time at the Baltimore Sun, CBS News, and NPR.
Culhane was born in Chicago, Illinois, and grew up in Detroit, Michigan.
Culhane was the London Bureau Chief of the Baltimore Sun and host of the BBC's International Magazine[1] before joining CBS News in 1967.[2] In May 1968, Culhane reported with Charles Kuralt on malnutrition in the Peabody Award-winning documentary CBS New Reports: Hunger in America.[3] Senator George McGovern noted that seeing the program prompted him to introduce the resolution that would create the Senate Select Committee on Nutrition and Human Needs.[4] Culhane contributed to other CBS documentaries, including CBS Inquiry: The American Assassins[5] with Dan Rather and he was the reporter who unveiled the depths of the Payola corruption at CBS Records in the hour-long piece, The Trouble with Rock,[6][7] covering the scandal that had resulted in Clive Davis's firing from CBS Records.[8]
Throughout his time at the network, Culhane reported for the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite and later Dan Rather. His work spanned the globe, with reports on the U.S. military's Operation Phoenix[9] in Vietnam[10] and student protests in Beijing's Tienanmen Square.[11] In 1979, Culhane joined Kuralt and others, launching the program CBS News Sunday Morning.[12][13] His cover stories[14] included an Emmy-winning piece about Vietnam veterans, "After the Parades,"[15] profiles on artists,[16] poverty in the South Bronx,[17] whale conservationists,[18] and presidential candidates.[19][20] Culhane retired from CBS News in 1995 and moved to Paris where he reported for NPR.[21][22]
He died on February 24, 2024, at his home in New York, at 93 years old.[23]
