Lorum ipsum yada yada. And the good luck continued: Collaborating with Alexandra Danilova on her memoirs. Writing for The Atlantic under Bill Whitworth, who gave me the latitude to write about my disparate interests, worked with me line by line, and introduced me to the work of writers who remain my role models. Moving to Paris, where I came to know writers, photographers, and artists (among them, Mats Gustafson, who did the portrait on this page) whose work I had admired from afar. Writing for The New Yorker under Bob Gottlieb, who granted me a platform in a column about fashion and created an atmosphere of family.
