For over two decades, the art of the interview was very nearly the sole province of Rex Reed, the Master of the Celebrity Profile. While still in his twenties Rex Reed became the widely-syndicated film critic for a succession of high-profile magazines and newspapers and from that vantage point began to interview everyone in the film and theater worlds who mattered. In People Are Crazy Here Rex Reed writes a long and intimate profile of Tennessee Williams, a rare look at George C. Scott in all his eccentricity, Doris Day's decision to leave Hollywood to care for animals, Jack Nicholson following his early success with Easy Rider, and much more. Writer Tom Wolfe has said about Reed: "Rex Reed...raised the celebrity interview to a new level through his frankness and his eye for social detail. He has also been a master at capturing a story line in the interview situation itself."
