Comment: Assessing in relation to
WP:AUTHOR - Dobkin does not appear to be "regarded as an important figure or widely cited by peers or successors"; has not "originated a significant new concept, theory, or technique"; and has not "created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work". His first (so far, only) book did receive some positive reviews, but arguably not "significant". The list of external links may contain significant coverage but some appear to be interviews (and so may not be reliable sources per
WP:IV).

Adin Dobkin (born 1993) is an American writer, journalist and a teacher at CUNY Tech. He is the author of Sprinting Through No Man's Land: Endurance, Tragedy, and Rebirth in the 1919 Tour de France, [1] one of six books listed as Coups de Coeur in the American Library in Paris Book Award in 2022. [2]
Early life and education
Dobkin was born in Santa Barbara, California, the first son of Jeffrey Dobkin and Julie Thompson-Dobkin, both medical doctors. He grew up in Newport Beach, California, and attended Newport Harbor High School, graduating in 2012. He received a BS in Economics from American University in 2012,[ citation needed] and then settled in Washington, D.C. for several years where he began writing for a variety of news outlets. In 2017 and 2018, he was President of the Military Writers Guild, [3] an international network of service members, veterans, and civilian analysts, dedicated towards the field of arms and the written word. He received his Master of Fine Arts in creative non-fiction from Columbia University in New York, graduating in 2020. [4]
Writing career
Dobkin's work has appeared in The Paris Review, [5] The Atlantic, [6] The New York Times Magazine, [7] and Los Angeles Review of Books, among others.
Dobkin's first book, Sprinting Through No Man's Land: Endurance, Tragedy, and Rebirth in the 1919 Tour de France, [1] was published in 2021 and was named an Amazon Book of the Month for History.[ citation needed] It focused on the 1919 Tour de France, which began within days of the signing of the Treaty of Versailles. Set in the aftermath of World War I, Dobkin details the unique challenges of that particular Tour, as France was emerging from conflict. William Fotheringham in The Wall Street Journal described the book as "an epic tale, a timely reminder of the Tour's umbilical connection with the communities through which it passes". [8] Publishers Weekly called it "a novelistic blow-by-blow account of the first Tour de France run after WWI, shining light on the wartime experiences of its racers, organizers, and observers". [9] The Christian Science Monitor named it one of the top sport books of summer in 2021. [10] The book was named among six Coups de Coeur prior to the American Library in Paris Book Award in 2022. [2] [11]
Dobkin is currently at work on his second book, tentatively titled These Bones Can Speak: José Tomás Canales, the Texas Rangers, and the Trial that Defined the Border, which details the story of the Texas legislator, and his attempts to investigate the conduct of the Texas Ranger Division following a massacre of Mexican Americans in 1919.[ citation needed]
Dobkin also co-hosts War Stories, [12] a podcast that focuses on stories at the heart of conflict.
Personal life
Dobkin lives in Brooklyn, New York.
