In his early years as editor of Vanity Fair, Graydon Carter’s budget had no ceiling. It was a time of lavish parties, unchecked expense accounts, hugely expensive photographers - and it was the last golden age of magazines.
Carter was Vanity Fair’s editor for 25 years, and the co-founder of Spy magazine. He joins Jim to talk about his dealings with the rich and famous, about those who took great offence at how they were portrayed and his memoir, When the Going was Good.
