Entertainment journalist, gossip columnist, and red carpet
kingpin, Marc Malkin, is a master of breaking celeb news. As
managing editor and film correspondent of E! News, Marc's signature
bowtie and byline were a staple at the network for over a
decade.
I like to think I discovered Marc—although I didn't. We first met
in the 90s, when I paid him $25 for gossip items for my then boss,
Sally Lee. Later, I somehow convinced him to commute to New Jersey
to book covers and write features for Twist magazine. From there
his career skyrocketed with high-profile jobs at the
The New York Daily News, Us Weekly,
and New York Magazine. Although he became a successful
on-air personality, Marc's true love has always been
writing.
On the lastest episode of Write About Now, I sit down with
Marc to talk about how he went from a Lifestyes of the Rich and
Famous-watching, poor kid in Howard Beach to a Vanity Fair
party-going gossip God. Some interesting takeways....
Big thanks to Dan Piscina for sound engineering the heck out of this thing.
