Thinking about magazine legend Clay Felker

It is not good news to hear that Clay Felker, the man who virtually invented the city magazine when he started New York magazine, is in a bad way. Forbes magazine reports that Felker, who has been struggling with cancer, has now moved into a New York City nursing home. Almost all magazine editors owe a debt of gratitude to Felker for his innovation and his vision. James Brady writes a nice column, remembering why that is.
