Yesterday morning, at 7.15 AM, my reptilian brain teamed up with a liter & a half of Cafe Bustello for a 15mn shoot with Pershing Square Capital Management’s CEO and self-described activist investor William “Bill” Ackman, who was in a fairly good mood if you consider he lost 2 billions last tuesday, as I learnt in today’s piece by the excellent Monica Langley.
And It made the front page! As seen on my Instagram.
Do you follow me on Instagram? You should.

Fun fact/ Leslie found me that small gig as an emergency, after i threatened her to permanently plank on her desk, wearing nothing but a french flag speedo till she hired me.

In this weekend’s WSJ, in addition to her profile by Alexandra Wolfe, the lovely Patti LuPone gives you 5 simple theater etiquette rules, so you un-educated meatheads will finally behave.
