Tim Shorrock (born 1951) is an American writer and commentator on US foreign policy, US national security and intelligence, and East Asian politics.

Life

The son of missionary parents, Shorrock grew up in Japan shortly after the US occupation following the Second World War.[1] He has written articles for several magazines, including Harper's, Mother Jones, The Nation,[2] and Salon.[3] He also worked as a reporter in the Washington bureau of The Journal of Commerce.[4] In a visit to Korea after the April Revolution, Tim witnessed South Korea's autocrat Syngman Rhee overthrown. He later said, "That was the first time in my life that I ever saw people rise up and throw out a dictator. I always remember the April uprising. That was a big influence on my life."[5]
