About Tina Brown
Why am I here?
Welcome everyone to my diary which is simply a place - in the third trimester of my life (as I prefer to think of it) - to unload my observations, rants, news obsessions, and human exchanges with the wildly eclectic cast of characters who populate my seething inbox.
I’ve been a transatlantic media diva for close to four decades – editor in chief of Tatler, Vanity Fair, The New Yorker, Talk, founder of The Daily Beast news site, and The Women in the World Summits, author of two best-selling royal tomes The Diana Chronicles and The Palace Papers, and The Vanity Fair Diaries, creator of Truth Tellers, an annual investigative journalism summit in London in honor of my late fabulous newspaperman husband Sir Harry Evans. Thanks to the crazy creative roller coaster of my life, I’ve collaborated and collided with so many great writers, culture shapers, newshounds, and iconoclasts over the years. So at a time when we awake every day to a news alert from Hades, I now have a place to share some of my intel and invite you to join the conversation.
What to expect
Mostly I shall write in notebook form because Big Think columns require three linked ideas and a pithy conclusion which, after a day of the required intellectual toil, can be instantly erased by some new cloudburst of crap in the unceasing news cycle.
