My latest story for @nytimes, published as a Great Read today.

It's about two men, their obsessions, and a vast art forgery operation that landed one of them in federal prison:

“The current period of democratic erosion around the world offers a clear warning that when a free press is undermined, other freedoms will soon fall as well. If this sounds overstated, I challenge anyone to find a country where people are free but the press isn’t.”

Happy birthday, @nytimes!!! We’re celebrating the paper’s 175th, and publisher AG Sulzberger wrote this to readers about our history and what it means for our responsibilities today: nytimes.com/2026/09/18/opi…

"That’s the core lesson of modern art and philosophy: The self realizes it is a self among others, becoming human when you recognize yourself in a face not your own."

Brilliant review of New Museum's showcase from @jsf:

www.nytimes.com The New Museum Reopens, Asking, ‘What Is Human?’ It’s a big, serious, adult show worth debating and even fighting over — just the way our critic likes it.
