In The Media
In 1998, PBS broadcast documentary filmmaker Marion Cajori’s Emmy-nominated short, “Chuck Close: A Portrait in Progress.” In 2007, Cajori made “Chuck Close", a full-length expansion of the first film. British art critic Christopher Finch wrote a biography, Chuck Close: Life, which was published in 2010, a sequel of sorts to Finch’s 2007 book, Chuck Close: Work, a career-spanning monograph.
Close appeared on The Colbert Report on August 12, 2010, where he admitted he watches the show every night.

Famous quotes containing the word media:
“Few white citizens are acquainted with blacks other than those projected by the media and the so—called educational system, which is nothing more than a system of rewards and punishments based upon one’s ability to pledge loyalty oaths to Anglo culture. The media and the “educational system” are the prime sources of racism in the United States.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
