ProPublica — the nonprofit journalism organization where MrB is editor-in-chief — partnered with Selfless Tee to produce a t-shirt last month.

After all, I already did three posts: What Wendy Wore Giving Thanks for Press Freedom Pretty People at the CPJ Dinner But I have to do one more because a photo of me chatting with the lovely Thelma Kandel wound up on…
Pretty People at the CPJ Dinner
So much happened at Tuesday’s International Press Freedom Awards Dinner for the Committee to Protect Journalists, that it has taken me three posts to cover it. My first post was about the vintage gown I wore. The second post was about CPJ’s mission and the dinner’s awardees. Now it’s back to the lighthearted stuff: party…

Outfit Photo by Bill Cunningham of the New York Times
I promised a full-length view of my gown from this week’s Committee to Protect Journalists fund-raising dinner, but I didn’t expect I’d get to use one from the New York Times! Famous photographer Bill Cunningham took this picture of me and my gorgeous friend Melissa — both in Zang Toi gowns — with Zang that…
