This is Episode 5 of a 12-part series of interviews with the creators and editors of sports writing.
My name is Shane Breslin, and I first came across the guest on this episode in the last few days of February 2020.
You may recall that time vividly. It was a time when a frightening new illness was sweeping the world, when the thoughts of an entire city being placed under strict lockdown — as Wuhan in China was at that time — was alien to most of us, and when coronavirus cases were skyrocketing in Europe and the United States and everywhere else.
During those few days, one of the things that took my mind away from the virus, for a while at least, was a stunning piece of writing titled "The Legacy of Mambacita", about Gianna "Gigi" Bryant, the daughter of basketball superstar Kobe Bryant, who died with her father in that helicopter crash tragedy in January 2020.
I’m delighted to welcome Mirin Fader, the author of that piece, and a fast-rising star of the longform sportswriting business, to Episode 5 of this series, The Sportswriter’s Life.
