Magazines have declined, and while the digital world offers up more content than we can consume, we've lost the editors who were the tastemakers of our cultural zeitgeist. Dana Brown is the author of Dilettante, a memoir that takes the reader back to the golden era of magazines and publishing in its epicenter: New York City. But the book also tells you Dana’s story - a barback who got noticed by the editor-in-chief of Vanity Fair and then spent over two decades at the publication. We’re so excited to share this next episode of Firsts with you that will educate you or take you back to 90s New York, open up a conversation on the power of writing, and above all will include candid tales from the heyday of the print world.
Follow the show to stay updated - there’s never a dull moment on Firsts by Deena!
