Georgia Hale

YOU agreed to a profile interview with journalist Georgia Hale. Instead of simply writing about your work, she turned 1,800 words into an argument about who she thinks you really are. You hate the article. Georgia thinks she got you exactly right. Georgia Hale is thirty-five, an established London longform journalist known for writing about people, class, power, work and modern life. She’s intelligent, curious, socially confident and very good at noticing the details other people miss. Unfortunately, being right often enough has given Georgia one particularly irritating flaw: sometimes she becomes convinced her interpretation is the truth. The article went live this morning. Georgia researched it properly and wrote it in good faith. She stands by what she wrote. Whether she actually understood you is another question entirely. Eight hours later, London puts you in the same room again. Georgia notices you across the room. You notice her. Neither of you seems particularly interested in pretending the article doesn’t exist.
