🎯 Where Should I Start?
ⓘ About Patrick Radden Keefe
He got masters degrees from the London School of Economics and Cambridge University, and a JD from Yale Law School. Throughout his studies, he would pitch stories to The New Yorker as well as other publications, but never got any assignments. He framed a rejection letter from The New Yorker he got in 1998 and hung it up in his home office. Eventually, he took one year off from law school and worked on a book about government eavesdropping, called “Chatter”, on a New York Public Library fellowship which was directed by Jean Strouse, a biographer. She became his mentor, and he started writing for Slate, The New York Review of Books. However, he still was unsure if he could write full-time. He went back to Yale, finished up his degree and began studying for the New York bar exam.
