The Woman at the Washington Zoo
In 1986, Marjorie Williams became an editor at the Washington Post, where she made a name for herself via her sharp political writing. The political profiles she wrote for the Post led to doing the same for Vanity Fair, and she quickly became considered a leading authority on the big names in politics. In January, 2005 Williams died of liver cancer at the age of 47. The Woman at the Washington Zoo is a collection of Marjorie Williams' columns from the Post and elsewhere, edited posthumously by her husband, Slate writer, Timothy Noah.
