Gene Grabowski (born 1954) is a former journalist and current crisis communications counselor.
Grabowski began his career in communications as a reporter, working primarily in Washington, D.C, where he covered congressional issues at the Associated Press, served as White House reporter for The Washington Times and as Manager of Press Information at C-SPAN.[1]
Grabowski resigned his position at The Washington Times in a dispute with newspaper editors over their handling of an article that suggested Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis had undergone psychiatric counseling. The Los Angeles Times wrote that Grabowski resigned over the complaint that an article he had written was revised to emphasize as-fact what Grabowski considered a mere remote possibility: that Dukakis had visited a psychiatrist.[2] (Dukakis's psychiatric history was a major campaign controversy, and ultimately may have contributed to his defeat in the election).[3]
Grabowski is frequently interviewed in the media about crisis management, and in particular as it relates to food safety and institutions of higher education.[4][5][6] Several media outlets have labeled him a "crisis guru." [7][8][9][10]
In 2007 Grabowski was named PR News Crisis Manager of the Year for his work on various campaigns, including the litigation struggle of the Kuwaiti detainees in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, the nationwide recall of Blue Bell ice cream, and the North American recalls of pet food.[11] He also holds a ranking from the U.S. Chess Federation.
