He is the author of several books of essays, including The Wish for Kings, Money and Class in America, Fortune's Child, Imperial Masquerade, Hotel America , and Waiting for the Barbarians . He has been a reporter for the San Francisco Examiner and for the New York Herald Tribune , a syndicated newspaper columnist, and, since 1983, editor of Harper's Magazine , where his monthly essays won a 1995 National Magazine Award for their "exhilarating point of view in an age of conformity."

He was also the host and author of a six-part documentary series, American Century, broadcast on public television in 1989. He lives in New York City with his wife and three children.
