Seller's Description:
David Levine. Good in Good jacket. viii, [2], 241, [5] pages Illustrations/Caricatures. Index, DJ has wear, tears and soiling. Some soiling to fore edge of pages. This book is based on the author's weekly column in The New Republic. John F. Osborne (March 15, 1907-May 3, 1981) was an American magazine editor and journalist. Osborne wrote for the Memphis Commercial Appeal and the Associated Press before joining the National Recovery Administration, and then the Tennessee Valley Authority, as a U.S. government public relations officer during the Great Depression. He became an editor at Time-Life. In 1940, William Saroyan lists him among "contributing editors" at Time in the play, Love's Old Sweet Song. Eventually, he became Time's London editor and then Far East editor (based in Hong Kong) in the 1950s. He later became senior editor at New Republic. Osborne won the Polk Award for magazine journalism in 1973. His work landed him on the first Nixon's Enemies List, a limited master list of famous people that President Nixon considered his direct political opponents. Known for his courtly manners, he had a drawl and a quiet demeanor, which belied his sharp political sense. He was a very respected member; some said the most respected by the other members, of The White House Press Corps. He wrote "The Nixon Watch" column, which was noted for its preoccupation with the relationship between Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger, followed by "The White House Watch" column. In addition to his political books, he co-authored two Time-Life series books, one about Britain, the other about the Old South. David Levine (December 20, 1926-December 29, 2009) was an American artist and illustrator best known for his caricatures in The New York Review of Books. Jules Feiffer has called him "the greatest caricaturist of the last half of the 20th Century". A job at Esquire in the early 1960s saw Levine develop his skills as a political illustrator. [2] His first work for The New York Review of Books appeared in 1963, just a few months after the paper was founded. Subsequently, he drew more than 3, 800 pen-and-ink caricatures of famous writers, artists and politicians for the publication. Levine would review a draft of the article to be illustrated, together with photos or other images sent by the staff of the Review. Within a few days, he would return a finished drawing that caught "a large fact about his subject's character"; "his brilliance lay in weaving [the article's] ideas with his own". Only about half of Levine's caricatures were created for the Review. Other work has appeared in Esquire (over 1, 000 drawings), The New York Times, The Washington Post, Rolling Stone Magazine, Sports Illustrated, New York Magazine, Time, Newsweek, The New Yorker, The Nation, Playboy, and others. As a caricaturist for these publications, Levine distinguished his process from that of political cartoonists: "I could take time to really look it over and think about it, read the articles and so on. The political cartoonists don't get a chance. The headlines are saying this and this about so-and-so, and you have to come up with something which is approved by an editor. I almost never had to get an approval. In forty years I may have run into a disagreement with The New York Review maybe two times." In 1967 he was elected into the National Academy of Design as an Associate member and became a full Academician in 1971.
