Lucky you! You have arrived at the rest of your life. What you learn in these chapters you can use and profit from every single day you remain alert and willing to learn. In short, we here today begin your great adventure. Barbra Streisand has a signature tune that goes like this... "People who need people are the luckiest people in the world" (from the film "Funny Girl", 1968). And this applies especially to writers, for everything we write will be almost entirely, if not exclusively, about people. In this volume, I'm going to give you the essence of what it takes for you to rise high and triumph as a writer. Let us begin at the beginning, as a writer about people and their multifarious activities. To begin this volume, I suggest that you read the five portrait articles I have written and included in this book... about Abigail van Buren, Arthur Godfrey, Jacques Brel, Elizabeth Taylor and Pete Seeger. If you do, my comments will be more understandable and useful to you. I have written hundreds of profiles, ranging from the completely unknown subjects, to the household names. Indeed, I am one of the major profile writers of my generation. I want to pass on my mantle to you. It is worth having.
