Among dozens of accolades, Koppel has won 42 Emmy Awards and 12 Columbia-DuPont Awards, television’s equivalent to the Pulitzer. After leaving ABC, Koppel worked as managing editor for the Discovery Network, a contributing analyst for BBC America, and a special correspondent for NBC News’s “Rock Center.” His most recent book is Lights Out, a New York Times best-seller.
