Charles Graeber is an American journalist and author. He published two nonfiction books in the 2010s. He wrote the 2013 book The Good Nurse: A True Story of Medicine, Madness, and Murder about the serial killer Charles Cullen, which was a follow-up to his 2007 article for New York magazine about Cullen,[1][2] and the 2018 book The Breakthrough: Immunotherapy and the Race to Cure Cancer about cancer immunotherapy.[3]
Graeber was born in the US state of Iowa and lives in Nantucket, Massachusetts, and Brooklyn, New York. Before becoming a journalist and author, he was a medical student and researcher and co-authored papers for scientific journals.[4] As a journalist, Graeber has written for numerous publications, including Wired, GQ, The New Yorker, Outside, and The New York Times.[5] The New York Times's Janet Maslin said Graeber "has been drawn to extremes throughout his reporting career", highlighting his Wired article about Kim Dotcom.[1]
Graeber's book The Good Nurse was adapted into the 2022 drama film The Good Nurse, produced by Netflix. Graeber met with the film's writer Krysty Wilson-Cairns and provided access to the materials he used for his book.[6] He is also one of the producers for the 2022 Netflix documentary Capturing the Killer Nurse which began streaming on Netflix on November 11, 2022.[7]
