Already a skilled debater in high school, Bozell formed an alliance with William F. Buckley, Jr. while they were metriculating at Yale University; they became friends, collaborators and finally, brothers-in-law when he married Patricia Buckley in 1950. He practiced law, then worked on the staffs of Senators Joseph McCarthy (R-WI) and Barry Goldwater (R-AZ) during the 1950s and early 60s, while contributing to numerous right-of-center opinion outlets.
Concentrating, increasingly, on matters of conscience, he moved his family (the Bozells raised ten children) to Spain in the latter 1960s to work on publishing and academic projects, returning to the United States ten years later.
His published works include McCarthy & His Enemies (with Buckley,) The Warren Revolution, The Conscience of a Conservative (ghostwritten for Goldwater,) and Mustard Seeds. He was instrumental in the publishing of National Review and Triumph magazines, and in the founding of Christendom College, Young Americans for Freedom, and Operation Rescue.
