Eric Shansby
According to Washington Post columnist Gene Weingarten, Eric Shansby ’07 is “Meek looking. Totally unassuming. One detects, emanating from him, an eau d’ nerd. And yet this little schmo is bootlegging a colossal ego.” Once, Weingarten recalls, Shansby referred to his columns as “long, tedious captions for [his] cartoons.”
Beneath the banter, though, Shansby and his mentor clearly share a fruitful working relationship — and, yes, great mutual respect.
