David Samuels
JOURNALIST / WRITER
United-States
David Samuels is a journalist and writer, editor of Harper’s Magazine, and a contributor to The New Yorker and The Atlantic. A key figure in American literary journalism, Samuels is the author of two books. The most recent, Mentir à perdre haleine, retraces the fascinating saga of James Hogue, who managed to infiltrate Princeton and the prestigious Ivy club, the university’s elitist brotherhood. Through interviews with those who were seduced by the imposter’s sparkling personality, the author paints the intriguing portrait of a man without an identity.
