During her career, Ms. Dobrzynski pioneered several areas of coverage, including shareholder activism and corporate governance, stolen art and online auction fraud. Her investigative articles on Nazi-looted art in a Museum of Modern Art exhibition led to its seizure by the U.S. government, became a cause celebre and helped prompt Austria to change its laws on the restitution of art confiscated by the Nazis.A documentary about the case, "Portrait of Wally," premiered in spring 2012 at the Tribeca Film Festival. Likewise, a series of her articles in The New York Times about art fraud and rigged bidding in eBay auctions resulted in the prosecution and imprisonment of several shill-bidders. The Times nominated the series for a Pulitzer Prize in investigative journalism. Ms. Dobrzynski has been a correspondent in London, Washington, D.C. and San Francisco. She has been a speaker on journalism, women's issues, corporate governance, the art world and business at dozens of forums and conferences and has been interviewed by CNN, CNBC, NPR's All Things Considered, NPR's On the Media, WNYE's Digital Age and other radio and television stations.
