During his 25 years in broadcasting, Moyers has pursued a broad spectrum of journalism.

In addition to broadcasting, Moyers has pursued a wide range of public service. He was deputy director of the Peace Corps under President John F. Kennedy and special assistant to President Lyndon B. Johnson. Moyers left the White House to become publisher of Newsday, and for 12 years he was a trustee of the Rockefeller Foundation.
