This Industry Reporter Is On Point

Martin Mayer, author of Madison Avenue, U.S.A. and 34 other non-fiction books, including The Schools (1961), The Lawyers (1967), About Television (1972), The Bankers (1975), The Fed (2001), and The Judges (2005).
Here he is in an interview from 1987, talking about the writer’s life and emerging trends in media (the program is almost an hour long–but it’s well worth the investment).

For a conversation that took place 23 years ago, I’m pleasantly surprised with just how timely, or timeless, it is.

About David Burn

I wrote my first ad for a local political candidate when I was 17 (she went on to win her race, and I felt the power of persuasive copy for the first time). Today, I live near Portland, Oregon and spend my days building brands for companies that matter.
