David McCullough (1933–2022) was an American author and historian who wrote accessible narrative history for general readers. He won Pulitzer Prizes for Truman (1993) and John Adams (2002) and received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2006. His books include The Johnstown Flood, The Great Bridge, Brave Companions, and The Wright Brothers. McCullough worked as a writer and editor before turning to historical narrative, and his ability to present complex events through vivid personal testimony made him one of the most widely read American historians of the twentieth century.
