Edward Lifson is an award-winning American journalist and architecture critic. He writes on architecture, urbanism and culture, in addition to news and politics. Lifson created and hosted a popular radio show in Chicago called "Hello Beautiful!" to explore urban architecture and design issues. Prior to that he was a correspondent for National Public Radio. In the U.S. he covered urban affairs, politics, economics, labor and arts and culture. In 1996, he established the National Public Radio Bureau in Berlin, Germany. In Europe, Lifson covered the rebuilding of Berlin as a city and a national capital, European Union, post-Cold War politics, NATO, the launch of the euro, immigration issues, and Central Europe’s transition to democracy and capitalism. As a war correspondent, he reported extensively for NPR from Serbia, Kosovo, Montenegro and Macedonia before and during the war in Kosovo. In addition to Berlin, he has lived for many years in Paris, Florence, Italy and in England. Lifson's work has also been heard on the BBC and CNN and seen in ''Dwell'', ''The Architect's Newspaper, Architect, 'Metropolis, and A+U''. Increasingly, his journalism focuses on what makes cities work and how they can be improved. His particular interests include public space, transportation and art; street furniture, landscaping, parks, civic buildings, sustainability, housing, historic preservation, China, modern architecture and Japanese architecture. He created and hosted "Hello Beautiful!"—the popular award-winning weekly radio program about arts, architecture and culture—on Chicago Public Radio until mid-2007. A report by Lifson on the impending auction of Mies van der Rohe's modernist masterpiece Farnsworth House on the Fox River in Plano, Illinois, caused people across America to donate money to preserve the house in its original location.
