Dan Barry’s ‘Boys in the Bunkhouse’ is Now a Book

The 2014 winner of the Katherine Schneider Journalism Award for Excellence in Reporting on Disability, Dan Barry, has a new book based on the award-winning article, “The Boys in the Bunkhouse.” In the book, Barry profiles a group of men with intellectual disabilities who worked in servitude for decades in an Iowa turkey processing plant for almost no pay. Barry also examines the ensuing fight for better working conditions for those with disabilities. The book, from Harper Collins, is available in hardcover and e-book. For more information
