Michael Drosnin obit

Michael Drosnin, Who Found Clues in the Bible, Is Dead at 74

His best-selling “Bible Code” books claimed that historical and future events were encoded in the Old Testament, although he couldn’t explain how or why. 

He was not on the list.


DROSNIN--Michael, 74, of New York City passed away on June 9, 2020. Michael was born in 1946 in Brooklyn. He was an investigative reporter and international bestselling author.

He held staff positions at The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal before becoming a freelance writer and went on to publish Citizen Hughes, The Bible Code, Bible Code II and Bible Code III. He was fiercely intelligent, opinionated and determined, dedicated to the pursuit of truth and justice, fun-loving and generous with friends and family. He is survived by his sister Barbara Drosnin, nieces Wende Brown (Kevin) and Julie Gozan (Tom Keck), and three great-nieces. He was predeceased by his mother Evelyn Drosnin and father Edward Drosnin.
