Timeline

1949

Christopher Eric Hitchens (born April 13, 1949) was a British-American author, journalist, and literary critic. He was a columnist at Vanity Fair, The Atlantic, The Nation, Slate, and Free Inquiry. Hitchens is known for his atheism and anti-theism and was a firm believer in the Enlightenment values of secularism, humanism, and reason.

1970

His writing took him to Northern Ireland, Greece, Cyprus, Portugal, Spain and Argentina in the 1970s reporting for The Nation, The New Statesman, and other British publications.

1973

He was summoned to Athens, Greece in 1973, after his mother, who had left his father, committed suicide with her male partner. In 1987, he learned that his mother was Jewish, which she concealed from her husband and family.

1981

He moved to the United States in 1981 where he became a naturalized citizen.

2003

He left The Nation publication in 2003 after he publicly announced his support of the American invasion of Iraq.

2008

At the suggestion of his boss, "Vanity Fair" editor Graydon Carter, Hitchens agreed to undergo the controversial "waterboarding" interrogation procedure for purposes of hands-on research for the magazine. Even though Hitchens was professionally supervised throughout the session and could stop the procedure at any time, he lasted less than 20 seconds before giving the hand-signal to terminate the experiment.
