My short profile of Jay Lauf, publisher of The Atlantic, was recently published in the Connecticut College alumni magazine:
“When he graduated from Connecticut College in 1986, Jay Lauf dreamed of becoming a writer at a news magazine like Time, which he respected for its role in the national conversation. But, after a year trying to make it as a journalist in Washington, D.C., Lauf moved home to Connecticut. There he had a job interview that would lead him to a corner office above Manhattan’s Madison Avenue and straight to the heart of that national conversation.”
