Pushing Buttons, Throwing Shade: 12 Minutes on the Conde Nast Elevators
The first in a series of mini oral histories about working at Conde Nast when it was at its peak. Voices include Vanity Fair's Graydon Carter, Gourmet's Ruth Reichl, Allure's Linda Wells, GQ's Jim Nelson, etc. Plus: the origin story of @Conde Elevator.
Short oral histories about working at Conde Nast when it was still a creatively indulgent, somewhat ridiculous place to work. Themes include: elevators, lunch, looking the part, Anna Wintour, etc. This is an experiment to promote a forthcoming series. All episodes and news can be found on substack at Uncle Karen.
