"Among the many accomplishments of Mark Lacter, the respected journalist who died last week, was his mastery of a now-essential journalism skill---an ability to move seamlessly from long, deeply reported pieces to punchy blog items. That’s a talent editors value and young journalists find hard to learn.
In her moving and witty tribute to Mark, his wife, Laura Levine, the novelist and comedy writer, talked at his funeral about his many talents, including his ability to write and think fast and creatively."
