Readings for Friday, 11/11

Roger Ebert Profile, from Esquire

Zooey Deschanel profile, from New York Magazine

Hemingway profile excerpt, by Lillian Ross

"Lady Olga," by Joseph Mitchell

If you haven't already read these, start with the Ross and Mitchell profiles of Hemingway and Lady Olga. Definitely read the Ebert and Deschanel, too. These should give you a good idea of what to do in a profile. Cool? Post a comment if you have questions.

  1. Not sure if this was dicussed in class, but are the profiles on someone we create, or are they of someone famous, or are they about someone amongst our everyday lives?
