kottke.org posts about 'susanorlean'

Regarding Susan Orlean's piece on Robert Lang and origami from a couple of weeks ago, the New Yorker has posted a 5-minute audio slideshow of Orlean talking about the piece.

Robert Birnbaum interview with Susan Orlean. Here's his first interview with her from 2001.

Update: I linked to this without reading it first, something I *never* do, but now that I've read it, there's really some great stuff in there about the writing process, magazines (specifically The New Yorker), and editing. And great quotes like "I'd rather work for Drunken Boat than for Time magazine, to be honest with you". Ouch for Time magazine.

Idolspize...when you simultaneously idolize and despise someone.

The NYTimes profiles Susan Orlean and John Gillespie's new house in upstate New York (audio slideshow). It looks gorgeous.

Susan Orlean attempts to answer the question about why fans at Fenway sing Sweet Caroline during the game.
