Charlie Rose's Wednesday, September 15, 2010 Conversation with Annie Cohen-Solal

CHARLIE ROSE: Annie Cohen-Solal is here. She is a writer, and a
teacher and a culture historian. In 1985 she made a name for herself when
she published "Sartre, a Life," a well-regarded biography of the famous
French philosopher. She then arrived in New York in 1989 as a cultural
counselor to the French embassy.

Then she met art gallery legend Leo Castelli. He became her mentor
and her friend different. She’s now written a biography about him called
"Leo and his Circle, the Life of Leo Castelli." I’m very pleased to have
Annie Cohen-Solal back at this table. Welcome.
