Guggenheim fellow, a visiting scholar at the Russell Sage Foundation, and Ferris Visiting Professor of Journalism at Princeton University. He taught at a number of colleges and universities and contributed articles and reviews to numerous magazines and journals of opinion. In addition to his Nation responsibilities, Navasky was also director of the George T. Delacorte Center for Magazine Journalism at Columbia University, a member of the board of Independent Diplomat, and a regular commentator on the public radio program Marketplace. In 2005, Navasky was named chairman of the Columbia Journalism Review (CJR). This appointment engendered some controversy; as Navasky's name did not appear on the masthead, critics on the political right saw this as hiding that, despite the magazine's purported lack of political bias, a "major left-wing polemicist is calling the shots at CJR without any mention on the masthead". In 2005, Navasky received the George Polk Book Award given annually by Long Island University to honor contributions to journalistic integrity and investigative reporting. He served on the boards of the Authors Guild, International PEN, and the Committee to Protect Journalists. In 2020, Navasky was appointed to the board of Defending Rights & Dissent. Personal life and death Navasky married Anne Strongin in 1966. They had three children. Navasky died from pneumonia at a hospital in Manhattan on January 23, 2023, at the age of 90.
