Carey Winfrey is an American journalist. After an internship at the Public Broadcast Laboratory (PBL) and a Pulitzer Traveling Fellowship to Hong Kong in 1967 and 1968, he began work as a reporter and writer for Time magazine, where he primarily wrote the "Press" section. In 1971 he was hired by WNET/13 to produce a television program about journalism and the press, "Behind the Lines," which in 1975 won an Emmy award for "The Adversaries," a documentary about the relationship between U.S. presidents and the press. He became executive producer of “Assignment America,” a weekly interview and documentary series, in 1975, and executive producer of Local News and Public Affairs for WNET/13 the following year. In 1977 he joined the metropolitan desk of The New York Times as a reporter and in 1976 was awarded Columbia University’s Meyer Berger Award for Distinguished Reporting Reporting for “his witty and elegant stories of New York life, written with a perception equal to his style.” He was posted to Nairobi, Kenya to cover sub-Saharan Africa in 1979. There he covered three wars, the creation of Zimbabwe, and the ouster of Uganda dictator Idi Amin, among other stories. He left the Times in 1980 to write a screenplay for an independent film producer and returned to television the next year as a producer of “Mixed Bag,” a video arts magazine, for CBS Cable. In 1982, he joined CBS Magazines as director of video development. He became editor-in-chief of CBS’s Cuisine magazine in 1983; it was a National Magazine Award General Excellence finalist in 1984. In 1985, Winfrey became vice president, editorial director of CBS Magazines. He launched Memories magazine as its founding editor in 1988. Memories was named Advertising Age’s “Best New Magazine of 1989.” In 1990, Winfrey was appointed editor-in-chief of American Health, a Reader’s Digest publication. He was appointed the director of the Delacorte Center for Magazine Journalism at Columbia’s Graduate School of Journalism in 1996. The following year he was named an assistant managing editor of People magazine. He became editor-in-chief of Smithsonian magazine in July, 2001, from which he retired in October 2011.
