Men’s Journal

Leading up to the finale of Mad Men, I got approached by Men's Journal for any ideas I had on a piece they could run. I'd heard of Jerry Della Femina, a legend from the era and one of the big inspirations for the show. So I pitched a profile on him and it ran right before the premiere of the final series. I got to explore how his 1960's Madison Avenue stacked up to Don Draper's. Aside from smoking four packs of cigarettes a day and not being very woke, they were more different than you'd think.
