A propos de cet article

Folio; 40 pages; Contents clean and secure in original printed wrappers, a couple chips at page corners; paper toned at edges. This is an issue of the weekly "magazine" section of The Washington Post published October 6, 1968. The cover features a wonderful caricature of the reporting team Rowland Evans and Robert Novak with an image of the Capitol in the background drawn by David Levine. Image measures 9.5" x 8.5" Beneath the drawing is the caption "Evans and Novak / 'We're kind of professional badguys.' " The lead story by Julius Duscha is "The Evans and Novak Story / No Birthday Card from Hubert this Year." David Levine is one of the most skilled and influential caricaturists of the second half of the 20th century. He revived the tradition of American political caricature begun by Thomas Nast in the nineteenth century. PROVENANCE: From the collection of Rowland Evans, a provocative newspaper columnist, commentator and author who antagonized liberal politicians and championed conservative causes. He left Yale and enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1942 during World War II and was discharged in 1944 because of malaria. In 1963, Mr. Evans and Mr. Novak began writing ''Inside Report,'' an insider's view of politics that was published four times a week until Mr. Evans retired in 1993. Mr. Evans and Robert Novak began their work as columnists in the early 1960's, a time when newspaper columnists wielded outsize influence in national politics. The pair pioneered in transferring that influence to the medium of cable television with the political discussion program ''Evans & Novak'' -- carried on CNN from that cable network's beginning. Rowland Evans and his wife Kay (Katherine Winton Evans), also a respected writer and editor, were mainstays on the Washington social scene, hosting many memorable gatherings in their handsome Georgetown house -- to which flocked influential and remarkable people drawn from journalism, politics and general society over the decades from the 1960s to the 2000s. Both Evans and Novak became more predictably conservative over the years, particularly during the Reagan years. Reportedly, both columnists voted for JFK in 1960 and for Lyndon Johnson in 1964. Evans earned a place on Richard Nixon's infamous "Enemies List." Novak reported that Evans had JFK as a guest for the first dinner party the latter attended as President Elect. Kay and Rowland Evans has a particularly close friendship with Robert F. Kennedy, his wife Ethel and their family.…
