Have You Ever Heard The Curious Tale Of Darth Wasserstein The Mysterious??

Posted by Sean Doyle, March 29, 2010.
Vanity Fair has an interesting article on the secretive life and final days of celebrated financier Bruce Wasserstein.

For the article written by William D. Cohan, click here.

On a side note, I attended an appearance by Mr. Wasserstein at the 92nd St. Y in the fall of 2007. During the interview he (Wasserstein) was frequently evasive and not at all giving with information. Wasserstein's stubbornness with answers led to many awkward pauses and a rather unenlightening evening. It was so deadly boring in fact that Bloomberg TV anchor Michael McKee, who was seated just a few rows ahead of me, slept for most of the interview. It was only McKee's blissful snore that occasionally punctuated the stale unpleasant silence that followed the moderator's every question. Idiot that I am, I stayed awake for the whole damn thing.

The Trade is: Buy: Michael McKee. Short: Me
