Sheila Nevins and Tina Brown - Summer Staff Picks
It\u2019s summer, and every other week, members of the Here\u2019s The Thing staff are selecting their favorite interviews from the archives. This week, we revisit Alec\u2019s interviews with two extraordinary women in media, Sheila Nevins and Tina Brown, recorded in 2017.\xa0 Sheila Nevins was the head of HBO Documentary Films from 1979 until 2018 and now leads MTV Documentary Films.\xa0 She has overseen the production of literally hundreds of documentaries, which have won dozens of Oscars, exerting more influence on the medium than perhaps anyone in its history.\xa0 Tina Brown is a journalist, editor and author, with her work ranging from memoir to biography, including her most recent book, \u201cThe Palace Papers: Inside the House of Windsor - The Truth and the Turmoil.\u201d\xa0 As the founder of Talk magazine and editor-in-chief of Vanity Fair, Tatler and The New Yorker, the British-born Brown brought her fresh observations and sharp wit to both the revered publications she led and New York society.\xa0
