  • Pete Hamill About AJ Liebling
    The Library of America interviews Pete Hamill about A. J. Liebling In connection with the publication in March 2009 of A. J. Liebling: The Sweet Science and Other Writings , edited by Pete Hamill, Rich Kelley conducted this exclusive interview for The Library of America e-Newsletter. Sign up for the free monthly e-Newsletter at www.loa.org . Liebling: The Sweet Science and Other Writings is The Library of America’s second Liebling volume. The first collected his wartime correspondence and his postwar memoir, Normandy Revisited . This new volume collects the five non-war books Liebling wrote after returning from overseas. How is his writing here different from the first volume ? In this volume we see Liebling’s writing expand with the confidence, delight, and exuberance of the years after the war. In some ways, the style is more baroque, perhaps idiosyncratic, but that was true to Liebling’s character. He was a gourmand of words, in addition to food. He could be feisty: you see that in “The Wayward Pressman” columns collected in The Press . And he retained his taste for “low” culture too: boxers and corner men, con men and cigar store owners, political hacks and hack drivers. They’re all celebrated in these pages. It was no accident that when Albert Camus came for the first time to New York in 1946, Liebling didn’t guide him through the Metropolitan Museum. He took him to Sammy’s Bowery Follies. Camus was enthralled. In January 2003 Sports Illustrated ranked The Sweet Science as #1 of the 100 best sports books ever, hailing Liebling as “pound for pound the top boxing writer of all time .

  • HBO Explores the Lives of Two Giants of Journalism in the Documentary BRESLIN and HAMILL: DEADLINE ARTISTS
    HBO explores the lives of two giants of journalism in the documentary BRESLIN AND HAMILL: DEADLINE ARTISTS In a contrast to the times of ‘fake news’, the documentary explores the careers of two pioneers of New Journalism, and celebrates the charm of New York during the last great era of print journalism. MIAMI, FL., April 17, 2019 – Brilliant writers, tribunes of the working class and icons of the lost world of newspapering, Jimmy Breslin and his friend Pete Hamill personified New York City. For five decades, these colorful columnists spoke for ordinary people and brought passion, wit and literary merit to their reporting on their city and nation. Their writings probed issues of race, class and the practice of journalism that resonate powerfully today. Exploring their intersecting lives and careers in New York, during the time when print journalism in New York was a synonym of grit and charm, the documentary BRESLIN AND HAMILL: DEADLINE ARTISTS debuts Monday, April 29 on HBO and HBO GO. Times per country visit hbomax.tv Born and raised in working-class New York City neighborhoods, Jimmy Breslin and Pete Hamill were products of fractured Irish-American families, and rose through the ranks of reporting without formal training or college degrees. Sometimes working on competing newspapers, and sometimes working on the same publication, they became good friends who challenged and inspired each other. Starting in the 1960s, Jimmy Breslin and Pete Hamill were household names, writing prolifically for the New York Herald Tribune, Daily News, Newsday and the New York Post, among other papers. These friendly competitors pioneered the “New Journalism” style, which brought elements of literary storytelling to the news, as well as a commitment to viewing reported facts through the prism of the common man and woman.

  • Location: Online
    New York University Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute SYLLABUS JOUR-UA 201, SECTION 4 THE BEAT (PRINT/ONLINE TRACK): Reporting Neighborhood News FALL 2020 Professor: Francis Flaherty Thursday, 10:00 AM - 1:40 PM Location: Online To contact professor: [email protected] Phone: 718.938.0663 Office hours: By appointment Course Description They say all politics is local, and the same can be said of journalism. People are endlessly curious about local events. They are interested not merely in the little stories (The police chief bought snazzy new uniforms and the mayor is furious), but also the local wrinkles on the big stories (All the Covid-19 masks got flooded in the hospital basement; they’re flying in new ones). The second big story this fall is the election. November 3 will spawn plenty of political stories both large and local. In this online course, students will serve as the sole correspondent for a particular neighborhood, reporting on a stream of locally based stories in pandemic-safe ways. Back in pre-Covid days, students were matched to one particular neighborhood in Downtown Manhattan -- the Lower East Side, maybe, or SoHo, or Greenwich Village. Students returning to NYC this fall can still cover one of those places, but students residing outside NYC can designate their hometown as their beat. Whether your beat is suburban Montclair, N.J., beachfront Venice, Calif., Mexico City, or New York’s East Village, the principles of local reporting are the same. In their neighborhood beat, students will monitor local news developments and connect with the local cast of newsmakers and colorful characters.
