When I grow up I want to be like Sy Hersh

[Wetzelbill]

I am a writer. Mostly fiction, although I have done some journalist type work as an opinion columnist for the Arizona Daily Wildcat and for Red Ink Magazine. I do not consider myself a journalist, but I do plan on writing some investigative type journalist work here and there throughout my career. If and when I do, I hope it is one-tenth as good as the work Seymour Hersch has been doing throughout his career. I have included some interviews and articles about him as well as links to his New Yorker essays from this year. For the mods, I didn't post the most recent one that he did so this isn't a dupe thread, just a revisitation of some of his stuff from this past year as well as so more info on him personally.

1. Arizona Daily Wildcat as in University of Arizona?

I got my undergrad degree from there.

Best of luck.
