James Fox

With an ear for idiosyncrasies and a nose for narrative, James Fox is an acclaimed journalist, author and one of Britain's most successful ghostwriters. Whereas most ghostwriters are invisible, Fox has shared bylines with the likes of Keith Richards on his award-winning, bestselling 2010 memoir, Life. Cutting his teeth in the glorious days of long-form journalism for the likes of the Sunday Times and Vanity Fair, Fox is known for his compelling and elegant turn of phrase. With host Catherine Fairweather in our eleventh episode, Fox discusses the glory days at the Sunday Times under Harold Evans, his propensity for anarchic characters and nearly losing his life.
