David Willman (born October 18, 1956 in Pasadena, California) is a Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist. ==Biography== Willman graduated from San Jose State University with a B.A. in Journalism in 1978. His work has prompted major public reforms, including a ban in 2005 of drug company payments to government scientists at the U.S. National Institutes of Health. Willman’s investigative reports in the ''Los Angeles Times'' also led to the March 2000 safety withdrawal of Rezulin, a Type 2 Diabetes drug that grossed more than $2 billion in sales. Earlier in his career, Willman covered local, state and national politics, including presidential campaigns in 1980, 1984 and 1988. Willman has worked from Washington D.C. and throughout California. His investigative reports in the 1990s exposed defective construction within tunnels of the Los Angeles subway and at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, prompting structural overhauls. All repairs were made at the expense of the contractors responsible for the defective work. He currently resides in Bethesda, Maryland. Willman's 2011 book ''The Mirage Man: Bruce Ivins, the Anthrax Attacks, and America's Rush to War'' (Bantam Books) concerns the 2001 anthrax letter attacks in the US and the subsequent media coverage and FBI investigation.〔Temple-Raston, Dina, "Mad Scientist Hides In Plain Sight", ''Washington Post'', 14 August 2011, p.
