Interview with Glenn O’Brien; Ingrid Sischy out

By at 25 January, 2008, 10:20 am

The 1980s are officially back.

Peter Brant has bought out ex-wife Sandy’s interest in Brant Publications including Interview Magazine (Brant is now married to 1980s supermodel Stephanie Seymour). Interview was for the last two decades under the operational control of Sandy Brant and Ingrid Sischy was the editor. Following Sandy’s departure, Sischy has resigned. Peter Brant has appointed Glenn O’Brien editorial director and Fabian Baron creative director.
   
    O’Brien harks back to the Andy Warhol Interview days, and my era there. A very, smart, entertaining fellow — and I’m not sucking up (OK, I am — but it’s true). Recently I attended a party where a kid on the sidewalk was hawking DVDs of O’Brien 1978-1982 cable access talk show “TV Party.”
  
 Back in the late 1980s Fabian Baron was the designer for New York Woman (a publication of which my wife, Amy, became publisher).


I may have to start reading Interview again
