Reporting Always: Writings from The New Yorker

From the inimitable New Yorker journalist Lillian Rossâ€”â€œa collection of her most luminous New Yorker piecesâ€ (Entertainment Weekly, grade: A).

A staff writer for The New Yorker since 1945, Lillian Ross is one of the few journalists who worked for both the magazineâ€™s founding editor, Harold Ross, and its current editor, David Remnick. She â€œmade journalistic history by pioneering the kind of novelistic nonfiction that inspired later workâ€ (The New York Times).

Reporting Always is a collection of Rossâ€™s iconic New Yorker profiles and â€œTalk of the Townâ€ pieces that spans forty years. â€œThis glorious collection by a master of the formâ€ (Susan Orlean) brings the reader into the hotel rooms of Ernest Hemingway, John Huston, and Charlie Chaplin; Robin Williamsâ€™s living room and movie set; Harry Winstonâ€™s office; the tennis court with John McEnroe; Ellen Barkinâ€™s New York City home, the crosstown bus with upper east side school children; and into the lives of other famous, and not so famous, individuals.

â€œMillennials would do well to study Ross and to study her closely,â€ says Lena Dunham. Whether reading for pleasure or to learn about the craft, Reporting Always is a joy for readers of all ages.
