Early life
Shukman was born in 1958 in St Pancras, London. He is of Jewish ancestry – his grandfather, whom he is named after, was part of the Jewish community who lived in Baranow, Congress Poland which was then part of the Russian Empire, before emigrating and settling in the United Kingdom.[1] His father was Harold Shukman, a Russian scholar at St Antony's College, Oxford;[2] his mother was Ann King-Farlow, also a Russian scholar, of writers such as Alexander Men (a Russian theologian).

In January 2012 Shukman was appointed as the BBC's first science editor. Shukman said: "It's a privilege to be given this new role as part of the BBC's drive to enhance its science coverage. The science story has never been so compelling and I'm delighted to be given this opportunity to lead our reporting and analysis of it."[6]
