Portrait of a Spy ga-11
Page 37
Louis Toscano, my dear friend and longtime personal editor, made countless improvements to the manuscript, as did my copy editor, Kathy Crosby. Bob Barnett, Deneen Howell, Linda Rappaport, and Michael Gendler were a priceless source of wise counsel during a very busy year, as were Jim Bell, Bruce Cohen, Henry Winkler, Ron Meyer, and Jeff Zucker. My study partners—David Gregory, Jeffrey Goldberg, Steven Weisman, Martin Indyk, Franklin Foer, David Brooks, and Erica Brown—kept my heart focused on what is truly important, even when my thoughts strayed to the unfinished manuscript lying on my desk. The peerless Burt Bacharach inspired me with his genius and his enduring passion for his work. Jim Zorn gave me friendship and faith when I needed it most.
A heartfelt thanks to the remarkable team at HarperCollins, especially Jonathan Burnham, Jennifer Barth, Brian Murray, Cindy Achar, Ana Maria Allessi, Tina Andreadis, Leah Carlson-Stanisic, Leslie Cohen, Karen Dziekonski, Archie Ferguson, Mark Ferguson, Olga Gardner Galvin, Brian Grogan, Doug Jones, David Koral, Angie Lee, Michael Morrison, Nicole Reardon, Charlie Redmayne, Jason Sack, Kathy Schneider, Brenda Segel, Virginia Stanley, Leah Wasielewski, and Josh Marwell, who profoundly influenced the plot of Portrait of a Spy with a single question.
I wish to extend the deepest gratitude and love to my children, Nicholas and Lily. Not only did they assist with research and the final preparation of my manuscript, but they gave me unconditional love and support as I was struggling to meet my deadline. Finally, I must thank my wife, the brilliant NBC News journalist Jamie Gangel. In addition to managing my business, running our household, and raising two remarkable children, she also found time to skillfully edit each of my drafts. Were it not for her patience, attention to detail, and forbearance, Portrait of a Spy would not have been completed. My debt to her is immeasurable, as is my love.
