It’s not a secret how much I’ve admired what Radhika Jones has done with Vanity Fair, but I’d like to think this entire convo could be a blueprint for how leaders in media approach institutional change, representation, and general thoughtfulness:

I delivered my first child, a doctoral dissertation in English literature, in 2008, and my second child, a human, in 2014. You may call me Dr. Jones. And I will call her Dr. Biden.

This is what it was like to be edited by John Homans: “He told me why it sucked and what it needed to be, and I went ahead and rewrote it and he was, as always, totally right.”

John Homans was the kind of editor every editor aspires to be. I feel so lucky to have worked with him @VanityFair. We will miss him terribly.
