Life and career

In 1965, despite death threats, McCandlish exposed the Jewish background of senior Ku Klux Klan and American Nazi Party official Daniel Burros. Burros committed suicide the day the article was published, and McCandlish won the Page One Award from the Newspaper Guild of New York for the piece.
