A lengthy profile of CSI Fellow Elizabeth Loftus, “one of the most influential psychologists of the twentieth century,” has won its author a major magazine award. New Yorker staff writer Rachel Aviv won an “Ellie” in the Profile Writing category for what the magazine called her “nuanced” portrait of Loftus, one of the world’s leading experts on memory who has researched and shown that memories are reconstructed and very fallible. The article, “How Elizabeth Loftus Changed the Meaning of Memory” (April 5, 2021), described her innovative research and showed how it came into conflict with contemporary moral issues. In what seemed controversial and uncomfortable for many, it also delved rather deeply into Loftus’s own family and personal life.
