Pulitzer Prize winner and former LA Times music critic Martin Bernheimer dies at 83
Martin Bernheimer, the former Los Angeles Times music critic and a Pulitzer Prize winner, died Sunday morning after a long battle with sarcoma at his home in New York. He was 83.
The news was confirmed by his wife, former Newsday theater critic Linda Winer.
"Covering music and dance for more than 30 years at the Times was invariably stimulating and provocative, sometimes trying, occasionally exhausting and often very rewarding," Bernheimer said at the time of his retirement in 1996.
