Via the Daily Cardinal: Decades before becoming one of the New York Times most renowned reporters, Anthony Shadid started at The Daily Cardinal, the college paper for University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Shadid, one of the few Arabic-speaking reporters among the Western press, covered some of the most tumultuous areas in recent history. He was awarded two Pulitzers for his coverage of the invasion and occupation of Iraq. He covered Egypt’s revolution last year. In 2002, he was shot in the shoulder while covering the Israeli occupied West Bank.

He was with the New York Times covering the Syria uprising when he died of a fatal asthma attack Thursday. He was 43.

From the Daily Cardinal, Shadid’s arrival as a journalist:

Shadid, a two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, defined journalist. He first appeared in the doorway of The Daily Cardinal office on a summer day in the late ’80s carrying an army rucksack nearly as tall as him. He told the editor he has just moved up from Oklahoma to attend UW-Madison and to write for The Daily Cardinal.

He had just gotten off the bus. He hadn’t found an apartment yet. Everything he owned was on his back. But, he was ready for his first assignment.

hey did you guys know that i got a Dear Sugar tattoo on friday? from #41, Like An Iron Bell:

“Do you realize that your refusal to utter the word love to your lover has created a force field all its own? Withholding distorts reality. It makes the people who do the withholding ugly and small-hearted. It makes the people from whom things are withheld crazy and desperate and incapable of knowing what they actually feel.

So release yourself from that. Don’t be strategic or coy. Strategic and coy are for jackasses. Be brave. Be authentic. Practice saying the word love to the people you love so when it matters the most to say it, you will.

We’re all going to die, Johnny. Hit the iron bell like it’s dinnertime.”

I love Sugar although I’m not so keen on tattoes. Still, understand the impulse. And it looks beautiful….

"Suzzy Roche is mostly known as the youngest member of the three-sister band The Roches… What might..."

“

Suzzy Roche is mostly known as the youngest member of the three-sister band The Roches… What might be less well known is that Suzzy Roche—who is now in her mid-fifties—is part of a larger musical clan: with the folk singer Loudon Wainwright she has a daughter, Lucy, who is also a singer-songwriter and whose half-siblings are Rufus and Martha Wainwright, the children of Kate McGarrigle of the much-loved McGarrigle Sisters.

The Roche-Wainwright-McGarrigle intertwinings comprise a musical family the sprawling brilliance of which has not been experienced perhaps since—well, we wonʼt say the Lizst-Wagners—but at least the Carter-Cashes.
