Julian Sher is an award-winning investigative journalist in print, radio, TV, and on the Web. He is a veteran documentary writer and director, a newsroom trainer and the author of five international best-selling books.

His book "Until You are Dead" about Canada's most famous murder case details the investigation that helped Steven Truscott clear his name almost 50 years after he was nearly hanged as a boy.

Julian wrote and directed a New York Times-CBC TV investigation called "Nuclear Jihad" which won the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award, the broadcast equivalent of the Pulitzer Prize, in 2006. In 2007 he was on assignment in Iraq for the New York Times and the CBC to produce the documentary, "The Battle for Baghdad."

His books on crime and the justice system have been translated into four languages and sold in seven countries. His latest book, Caught in the Web: Inside the Police Hunt to Rescue Children from Online Predators has been hailed by reviewers as "riveting" "eye-opening and "gripping." His writings on child abuse have appeared on the front page of the New York Times, the cover of Maclean's magazine and the OpEd page of USA Today.

His Web page, JournalismNet, is ranked among the top journalism sites in the world by Google.
