This Industry Reporter Is On Point

Martin Mayer, author of Madison Avenue, U.S.A. and 34 other non-fiction books, including The Schools (1961), The Lawyers (1967), About Television (1972), The Bankers (1975), The Fed (2001), and The Judges (2005).

Here he is in an interview from 1987, talking about the writer’s life and emerging trends in media (the program is almost an hour long–but it’s well worth the investment).

For a conversation that took place 23 years ago, I’m pleasantly surprised with just how timely, or timeless, it is.
