Autorenporträt
John Silverman was a BBC news journalist for twenty-six years. He was a correspondent in Paris (1987--1989) and spent thirteen years (1989--2002) as Home Affairs Correspondent. In 1996, he was named Sony 'Radio Journalist of the Year' for his reports for the 'Today' programme (Radio 4) on the UK's Nazi war crimes inquiries. He has been a research professor at the University of Bedfordshire since 2007 where he has focused on the media and justice in post-conflict states. He has written numerous journal articles, mainly relating to research work in West and East Africa and the involvement of the International Criminal Court. Robert Sherwood was an operational Metropolitan Police Detective Inspector in the Metropolitan Police Service, retiring in 2003. Having obtained an Honours Degree in Law in 1993 he returned to university in 2011 (Royal Holloway, University of London) and obtained a MA in Holocaust Studies with a distinction in his dissertation comparing the UK War Crimes Team to the US War Crimes Teams. This ignited his interest in the subject of war crimes, leading him to undertake research for a doctorate in the UK War Crimes Team since 1945, receiving the doctorate in March 2020. He is now semi-retired, concentrating on academic pursuits.
