Cheryl Strayed Announces Death of Husband, Filmmaker Brian Lindstrom: ‘Forever in Our Hearts’
“We can only walk this dark path and search for the beauty Brian knew was there,” Strayed said in a May 15 statementHis directing credits included the documentaries Alien Boy: The Life and Death of James Chasse (2013) and Lost Angel: The Genius of Judee Sill (2022). In 2019, Strayed and Lindstrom co-directed the documentary short We Are Forbidden.

“He made films about incarcerated moms and their kids, about people with mental illness and substance use disorders, about teens living in homeless shelters, foster care and detention centers, about people who were at the bottom and trying to climb up,” Strayed said.
“He showed them to us so we’d see what he saw: that every one of us is deserving of love and respect; mercy and honor. Again and again, he went to the darkness to show us how much light is there.” Lindstrom’s “greatest legacy,” however, was his two children, Strayed said.

“Their extraordinary grace, courage and fortitude during this harrowing time was unfaltering and grounded in the undying love Brian poured into them every day of their lives,” the author said. - @people le

“Nobody’s Girl by Virginia Roberts Giuffre crowned book of the year at the Nibbies - also sharing an award with an expose of Facebook with an extraordinary twist. There were cheers at the packed ceremony, hosted by journalist and TV presenter Steph McGovern at the Grosvenor House Hotel, when the winner was revealed. In a video speech, Roberts Guiffre’s co-writer @msamywallace said: “It was the honour of my career, and it is my honour to be talking to you right now, thanking you for recognising her brave and powerful book. She always wanted this book to reach as many people as possible, and she particularly wanted it to help other survivors of sexual abuse, not just those who suffered at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislane Maxwell.”

Nobody’s Girl also shared the Nibbies’ freedom to publish award with Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams, a damning expose of Facebook. In an extraordinary twist because of draconian legal rulings on behalf of Facebook owner Meta, former Silicon Valley exec Wynn-Williams is not allowed to promote or talk about her book – or even appear beside it.

So the cover was blurred for the ceremony and her editor Mike Harpley spoke on her behalf – telling the audience: “The push for accountability is only possible because of brave whistleblowers like Sarah Wynn-Williams“ – as she received a standing ovation and cries of “f*** them” from the audience.

While not allowed to speak about her own book, Wynn-Williams took to the stage to pay tribute to the late Roberts Guiffre, telling the audience: “Virginia understood who silence protected and realised that only truth can protect everyone else.” She added: We are all living in a world that now, more than ever, is dominated by networks of powerful elites, whose wealth too often puts them above the law,” she said. “As they rewrite the rules, they grow arrogant with entitlement and impunity.”

Happy Birthday @colbert 🎂 You are a gift. (Quote from interview with @andersoncooper for podcast)

Something BIG coming to New York City the 4th week of June!!!!! Cannot wait to come back!! (Image: Betsy Ross stitching social media, designed and stitched by @dianaweymar in 2017 and submitted @newyorkermag as a potential cover, rejected, but I stand by it!) More details about big event to come!

Looking forward to this tomorrow night: “an evening with internationally renowned artist and activist Nan Goldin, featuring a special screening of Stendhal Syndrome (2024) and a conversation with Eva Respini, Interim Co-CEO & Curator at Large at the Vancouver Art Gallery, as well as an introduction by Dr. Trish Kelly, President & Vice-Chancellor at Emily Carr University of Art + Design.

This special program offers a rare opportunity to engage deeply with Goldin’s influential practice across photography, film and installation. Known for her uncompromising portrayals of intimacy, community, desire and loss, her work foregrounds lived experience while confronting structures of power, addiction and social marginalization.

The evening begins with a screening of Stendhal Syndrome, a film from the Vancouver Art Gallery’s permanent collection that extends Goldin’s photographic concerns into the moving image, exploring the emotional intensity of looking and the transformative power of art.

In the second half of the program, Goldin will be joined in conversation with Respini to reflect on the artist’s trajectory, the ethics of representation and the role of art as both witness and intervention. Together, they will consider how Goldin’s work continues to shape contemporary visual culture and artistic activism.”

Fundamentally Funder and the foundations of our humanity. “I have spent my working life trying to understand the world by writing about it, creating works of literature designed to inform, to bear witness and to delight. Often, these have been true stories of ordinary people, dealing with an overwhelming world.

“In our time of information surfeit on the one hand, and fake news on the other, literature fosters deep human understanding and knowledge. It feeds the human spirit, and it connects us across difference.

“I could not be more delighted to be joining VC Mark Scott and the extraordinarily gifted and dedicated colleagues at the University of Sydney. I am enormously grateful for the breadth of vision of this appointment. I am looking forward to contributing to the university’s research, scholarship and public engagement missions, and to working with the other creative writers and thinkers across the humanities at the University.” - @annafunderauthor joins the @sydney_uni
