Recommended article: Interview with journalist Gay Talese
“Although it may seem incredible, there was a time when not all men dressed in a clonic way nor did magazines offer interviews with the famous on duty as the main course. One of those men, who also wrote in those magazines, today continues to walk the streets of New York wearing an original and tailored suit and still advocates journalism far removed from the obsession with fame and exclusivity. His name is Gay Talese, and his main talent is having known how to do journalism of everything that other reporters tend to run away from: the common man, the unknown, the loser or simply those who are far from the spotlight and success and , through them, offer a fairly accurate portrait of the human being and his obsessions.”
