I used to enjoy watching Charlie Rose interviews—artists, musicians, authors, poets—where else in mainstream media could one find such intimate, conversational interviews? Although I never fully agreed with one friend’s assessment of the program as “elitist,” eventually I grew tired of the fawning over Hillary Clinton and Jeff Bezos. However I did continue to tune in because it was a great way to get about a 20-minute “live” pose for portrait practice.
