Stanford. He does "new
Journalism," personal journalism. He was positioned, in the Nineties, to be the Tom Wolfe of the Emerging Dot Com Economy for the next ten years. The dot com bubble burst. It killed countless projects. National Geographic came out to Silicon Valley in 2001 to do a major piece, interviewing everybody in sight. They had to cut it in half and stick it in an issue on the new hot topic, 9/11. If Bronson's book's movie never appeared, as the article notes, it wasn't a judgement on the movie, but on the passe topic. Since then he's tried other topics that Northern California alerts you to, like New Age and designer parenting. Through no particular fault of his own, his work lacks a center. It was a tough decade to say anything meaningful about. "Everything solid melted into air." But he keeps plugging away. He needs the kind of luck that Chua had. Her book, which seemed to be about China's new dominance (though it wasn't, she's American) appeared the very week China's leader made his much discussed trip to check on his investments in the USA. Bingo, cover of Time. If you know how inefficient the publishing industry is, you know what sheer luck that timing was. It's tough to chase after trends that dissolve into fads.

having only come across an article outside WP relating to one of his books, and thought this would be a good place to see what opinions there may be about him. Fortunately (due to lack of references) there weren't any opinions one way or the other, all info seems factual.. Does anyone have any sources on him?
712:
There isn't much on him to quote, actually. Mr. Bronson was cited today by a local
Silicon Valley parenting site, responding to the Amy Chua "Tiger Mom" media cycle. We know him for years as an industrious journalist who follows trends, sometimes even fads. His formative years were spent locally, at

I am slightly amazed that this BLP has been here for several years and never had any sources - there is one for his most recent book, but I don't think that serves much purpose in providing adequate sources. I've added the uncited BLP tag to the article. I don't know anything about this author,
