Which editor? I can't think of one editor I worked with as an editor. The various companies did have editors but we always acted as our own editor, so the question has no answer.
My first job in the States was as a junior fashion editor at 'Harper's Bazaar,' which I enjoyed, but not for all that long because I was fired by the editor in chief, who told me that I was too 'European.'
After Ann Godoff, who was editor-in-chief at Random House, left and went to Viking, I got to know Viking and the people there, and liked them very much. I also found a wonderful editor there, Wendy Wolf. It's a very congenial press.
Eisenstein was a good editor. I was trained as a film editor, and I've no doubt that the editor is key to a film.
But for me, being an editor I've been an editor of all kinds of books being an editor of poetry has been the way in which I could give a crucial part of my time to what I love most.
I think there's a lot of benefit in letting people vent. When I was on the Manchester Evening News, we got 500 letters a day, and part of my job as editor was to edit them. And I thought that was one of the best things in the newspaper, and it was instituted by an editor known as Big Tom, who said 'this is the voice of the people.' And he was quite right.
I wrote a query letter to an editor - a friend of a friend. The editor called me an idiot, told me never to contact an editor directly, and then recommended three literary agents he had worked with before. Laurie Fox was one of them, and I've never looked back.
I always warn aspiring reporters to observe three basic rules: 1. Never trust an editor. 2. Never trust an editor. 3. Never trust an editor.

An Editor becomes kind of your mother. You expect love and encouragement from an Editor.
Of course a magazine is shaped by its editor, and each editor is different.
An editor who is a mentor, advisor, and psychiatrist. Don't kid yourself-a good editor will make your book better.
I wanted to be my own editor, and by 'editor,' I mean unedited-or.
I am a news presenter, a news broadcaster, an anchorman, a managing editor - not a commentator or analyst.
My husband is an editor, and in fact he was the first person who hired me as an assistant editor. Then we fell in love and the rest was history.
My dad was a news editor for a Brazilian news station, and they had offices in New York and London.
