  • Dan Bilefsky is an international correspondent for The New York Times who in 2018 returned to his hometown of Montreal after 28 years abroad. Among other things, he has covered Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the conflict in Gaza and the fall of Afghanistan to the Taliban. He was part of the Times's team that investigated the assassination of the Haitian President, an investigation that won a Polk Award and was a Pulitzer finalist. Before returning to Canada, he was a London and Paris correspondent for The Times, and covered Brexit, the European refugee crisis, the 2015 terrorist attacks at the Bataclan nightclub and the pimping trial of Dominique Strauss-Kahn. While a correspondent in London Bilefsky wrote on an audacious heist by a gang of men in their 60s and 70s, known as the "Bad Grandpas," who stole about $20 million in diamonds, gold and gems from Hatton Garden, the city's medieval jewellery district, in April 2015. It was the largest burglary in England's history. The story was optioned by Hollywood and Bilefsky has written a book on the caper, "The Last Job," which was published by Norton in April 2020. The best-selling detective novelist Louise Penny called the book "a fabulous read, gripping, at times hilarious, at times, terrifying, always astonishing...Using his skills as an investigative reporter, Bilefsky pieces together a study of hubris and idiocy, of greed and camaraderie, and he does it with lyrical, moving, powerful prose. A wonderful book about an almost unbelievable crime.” (en)
