David Talbot

David Talbot, born and raised in Los Angeles, California, is an American journalist, author, activist and independent historian. Talbot is from a media and entertainment family. Talbot attended the Harvard School for Boys but did not graduate after falling afoul of the school's headmaster and ROTC program during the Vietnam War. After graduating from the University of California at Santa Cruz, the only university that would accept him, he returned to Los Angeles, where he co-wrote a history of the Hollywood Left, Creative Differences, with Barbara Zheutlin, and freelanced for Crawdaddy, Rolling Stone, and other magazines. He was later hired by Environmental Action Foundation in Washington, D.C. to write Power and Light, a book about the politics of energy. After returning to California, he worked as an editor at Mother Jones magazine before San Francisco Examiner publisher William Randolph Hearst hired him to edit the newspaper's Sunday magazine, Image. It was at the Examiner that Talbot developed the idea for Salon, a web magazine, and convinced several of his newspaper colleagues to join him. In 1995, Talbot founded Salon in San Francisco. The magazine gained a large following and broke several major national stories. Originally created to cover books and popular culture, the website became increasingly politicized during the Clinton impeachment drama in the late 1990s. Salon broke from the mainstream press by defending the Clinton presidency and investigating the right-wing prosecutorial apparatus headed by Kenneth Starr and Rep. Henry Hyde, whose own infidelity Salon exposed. Talbot stepped down as CEO and editor-in-chief of Salon in 2005, and returned briefly as CEO in 2011, but has since left the company. Since leaving Salon, Talbot has researched and written on the Kennedy assassination and other areas of what he calls the "hidden history" of U.S. power and the liberal movements to change America, as well as his public advocacy.

David Talbot Rice

David Talbot Rice CBE was an English archaeologist and art historian. His name is sometimes written as Talbot-Rice. His parents were Charles Henry Talbot-Rice and Cecily Mary Talbot-Rice (née Lloyd). Born in Rugby and brought up in Gloucestershire, Talbot Rice was educated at Eton prior to reading archaeology and anthropology at Christ Church, Oxford. At Oxford his circle of friends included Evelyn Waugh and Harold Acton as well as his future wife (Elena) Tamara Abelson (1904–1993) a Russian émigré whom he was to marry in 1927. This group allegedly formed the original for Waugh's Brideshead Revisited. Elena was also an art historian, writing on Byzantine and Central Asian art, and spent much time travelling abroad with him on archaeological digs. In 1925 while he was still an undergraduate, Talbot Rice became a staff member at the Oxford Field Museum's archaeological excavation in Kish, Iraq. He was to use this experience by incorporating some of his findings when completing his B.Sc. degree gained in 1927. Developing a passion for all things Byzantine, Talbot Rice joined the expeditions of the British Academy in Constantinople (now Istanbul) in 1927–32 and 1952–54. In 1928, for example, he visited Trebizond (now Trabzon), which would lead to his monograph on the subject being published in 1936. Talbot Rice's fieldwork continued with expeditions to Cyprus, Asia Minor, Iraq and Iran. His academic career took off in 1934 when he was appointed to the Watson Gordon Chair of Fine Art at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, a post he held until his death in 1972. In 1937 he gave the Ilchester Lecture, later published as The Beginnings of Russian Icon Painting. World War Two interrupted his academic pursuits when he was called up as head of the Near East Section of Military Intelligence (MI3b), which was responsible for Eastern Europe including Yugoslavia but excluding Russia and Scandinavia. He later transferred to the Special Operations Executive serving in North Africa and Italy with the rank of lieutenant-colonel. He was appointed Member of the British Empire in 1943. When peacetime resumed in 1945, Talbot Rice returned to his work in Edinburgh. From 1952-54, he led the excavations of the Great Palace of Constantinople in Istanbul, Turkey, and he was later involved in the uncovering and restoration of the Byzantine frescos in the Hagia Sophia in Trabzon. In 1958 he took responsibility for a major exhibition of Byzantine art for the Edinburgh International Festival. As well as continuing with research, teaching, and the responsibilities associated with his professorship, Talbot Rice served on various national committees associated with the arts, including the Arts Council, of which he was a member from 1963-68. He was an honorary member of the Royal Scottish Academy and a senior trustee of National Galleries Scotland. From 1967-71 Talbot Rice served as vice principal of the University of Edinburgh. His ambition to establish an arts centre in the university was realised posthumously in 1975 by his successor Professor Giles Henry Robertson when the Talbot Rice Gallery was founded and named after him.
