My profile of superstar defense attorney Joe Tacopina, aka the Devil's Advocate. (Clients include Aruba murder suspect Joran Van Der Sloot, Michael Jackson, and, yes, Trump.) One of New York's true characters.
hollywoodreporter.com
With the brawling style showcased in his successful defense of the embattled rapper, Tacopina has become one of the world’s most sought-after trial attorneys (just ask his client Donald Trump).

A brilliant and deeply moving historical investigation by @llegrarosenberg , about an Antarctic love affair. I was not aware of this subplot, which is worthy of its own book (or movie!) .
magazine.atavist.com
Sir Robert Falcon Scott’s doomed journey to Antarctica captivated the world. But hiding within the legend was a story that has never been told—a love affair between two of the crew who survived.

It's not every day I can indulge my polar passion at @THR, so I was thrilled to interview Jimmy Chin and Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi about their new Shackleton documentary, 'Endurance.'.

The Academy Award–winning husband-and-wife directors ('Free Solo') explain how they recreated the "greatest survival story ever told" for their new Nat Geo documentary.
