Fantastic profile.

Cannot believe that I got to profile an extraordinary filmmaker, who happens to be the mother of NYC’s new mayor, and think about intersections of art and politics, and how familial love might produce a buffer against the corrosive politics and cynicism of our time. My story about Mira Nair:

A terrific profile of Mira Nair by @rtraister.bsky.social that sheds so much light on Zohran's upbringing, including his more-fraught-than-previously-known college admissions process www.vulture.com/article/what...

Zohran Mamdani is a brilliant political talent with dizzying ambitions to change New York City as its new mayor. Is he ready for the actual job, though?

The @nymag.com annual Power Issue is devoted to the Democrats, who, yes, do not have much power at all, but that's what makes them so interesting! Everything is up for grabs. First up is Simon van Zuylen-Wood on the Bernie Bros v the Abundance Bros: nymag.com/intelligence...
