Born in the Bronx and raised there and in Queens, he began his career in 1972 as a reporter for the now-defunct Paterson News in New Jersey and has held various reporting and editing positions at the New York Daily News, The New York Times, Bloomberg News and The Star-Ledger in Newark.
He was a city editor, Sunday editor, managing editor and digital editor at the Daily News and worked on the metro desk of The New York Times. Rosen was New York editor at Bloomberg News, where he started a team responsible for covering major news throughout the New York area, including the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, and developing enterprise stories for the international, real-time wire service serving newspapers, radio stations and Bloomberg terminal customers.
He holds a bachelor's degree from the University of Missouri School of Journalism.
