Gay Talese is known for his distinctive writing style and dapper wardrobe. Talese became famous as a writer who helped to define the New Journalism in the 1960s. He wrote block buster best sellers like Honor Thy Father about the Bonanno crime family. The Voyeur’s Motel focuses on a motel owner who spied on his guests. Talese also calls himself a voyeur. He spent 8 years researching Thy Neighbor’s Wife, his book about sex in America. That research included managing a massage parlor and living in a nudist colony. Now, 91-year old Gay Talese has written a new book called Bartleby and Me. Sitting on his elegant leather sofa in the townhouse he’s lived in for more than 50 years, I asked Gay Talese to tell me about all the outrageous things he’s done in his life.
