Martha Steger
Freelance writer Martha Steger, based in Midlothian, Virginia, interviewed Tom Wolfe after The Right Stuff came out in 1979 and again after his narrative on modern architecture, From Bauhaus to Our House, was published in 1981.
"A lot of modern art was created to be hated,” said Nicholas Lowry, president and principal auctioneer for Swann Galleries.
The hour’s drive north from London culminated at a long, packed-earth driveway past a field of grazing horses.
It’s not every bestselling author who lives to see collectors’ editions of his books, but Tom Wolfe is rare by many standards.
