New York Times Covers James Comtois’ The Little One
It’s turning into a Crystal Skillman weekend (in a manner of speaking) given that she gave me the headsup on this latest item. Honestly, I think this is the first time where someone I covered at the blog would go on to be interviewed by the New York Times. Let me clarify, the fact that James Comtois, the playwright behind The Little One (who I interviewed a few weeks back) has nothing to do with my coverage.
Comtois is a talented and intelligent fellow (and quite easy to interview), so it makes sense he would be included in this June 22 piece by Jason Zinoman regarding the growing popularity of the horror genre in New York theater. The Little One opened its run on June 18. I never would have made a connection between Edward Albee and horror, but Comtois connects the dot for readers in the story.
Memoir: Norris Church Mailer’s A Ticket to the Circus
Posted by admin in Literature on April 14, 2010
I have yet to get a hold of the memoir to verify, but one has to imagine that the memoir of Norman Mailer’s final wife, Norris Church Mailer, makes for one heck of a read. Anyone that could stay married to a character like Mailer for more than 30 years clearly has a strength that must be read about. Here’s a link to the book, A Ticket to the Circus. For those looking for more immediate insight into Church Mailer, here is a recent New York Times Magazine profile where she discusses the memoir.
Haspiel Writing for NYT on Drinking
Posted by admin in pop culture on December 17, 2008
Dean Haspiel is a friend of this blog. I always love to interview Dean, as evidenced by this interview from a few months back in September. Back during that interview I admired the number of projects/websites that Haspiel had. But clearly, he’s looking to usurp Warren Ellis as the king of the Internet. And he’s really elevated his web presence with his latest role, blogging for the New York Times. I just have to say, any day that you get involved in a group blog that involves Susan Cheever is a damn fine day. Congrats, Mr. Haspiel.
