Daniel Ellsberg is an American activist, military analyst, economist, and author born in Chicago in 1931. He became a controversial figure in U.S. politics when he leaked the Pentagon Papers to the New York Times and other publications while working for the RAND Corporation. This confidential study, conducted by the U.S. Department of Defense, detailed governmental decision-making regarding the Vietnam War. Ellsberg was charged under the Espionage Act in 1973, facing extensive prison time, but all charges were dismissed due to government misconduct. He received the Wright Livelhood Award in 2006 and is known for the 'Ellsberg Paradox' and his support for WikiLeaks, Chelsea Manning, and Edward Snowden.
