American music critic (b. Nov. 29, 1915, New York, N.Y.—d. July 26, 2003, New York City), considered that he wrote for himself—not for any particular audience—and led readers to think for themselves. In doing so during his half-century-long career—two decades of them (1960–80) as chief critic for the
New York Times—he set the standard for such writing, becoming one of the most authoritative and influential music critics in the U.S. and, in 1971, the first to win a Pulitzer Prize for criticism. Schonberg also wrote about chess, reviewed mysteries and thrillers under the pseudonym Newgate Callendar, and was the author of 13 books, several of which came to be acknowledged as standard references.
