I would like to express my gratitude to those who took the time to answer my questions when writing this book. Journalism teacher at Texas at Arlington and Time reporter, Adam Pitluk. Gerri Hershey, contributing editor to Vanity Fair, GQ, and the New York Times Magazine. And a huge thank you to Claudia Cross, at Sterling Lord Literistic, for going above and beyond the call and providing me with names and contacts.
