Study for a portrait of Joan Juliet Buck by Reginald Gray. Paris 1980s(graphite on canvas)

Los Angeles, California
Occupationwriter/editor/actor

Joan Juliet Buck is an American writer and actress. She was the editor in chief of French Vogue from 1994 to 2001,[1][2] the only American ever to have edited a French magazine.[3] Buck currently writes for T magazine, New York Times's fashion magazine,[4][5] and W,[6][7][8] among others,[9][10] and was contributing editor to Vogue and Vanity Fair for many years. She is most well known today for her mea culpa attempt to exonerate herself from her association with her article on Asma al-Assad from Syria.[11]

Background

She is the only child of Jules Buck (1917–2001), an American film producer, who moved his family to Europe in 1952 "in protest against political repression" in the United States.[12][1] Her mother was Joyce Ruth Getz (aka Joyce Gates, died 1996), a model, actress, and interior designer.[1][13] John Huston, for whom her father worked as a cameraman,[12] was the best man at her parents' 1945 wedding. Her first language was French.[14]

Career

Journalism

Dropping out of Sarah Lawrence College to work at Glamour magazine[8] as a book reviewer in 1968, Buck became the features editor of British Vogue at the age of 23, then a correspondent for Women's Wear Daily in London and Rome.[15] [16] Buck was an associate editor of the London Observer. A contributing editor to American Vogue from 1980 and also Vanity Fair,[8] her profiles and essays appeared in The New Yorker,[17] Condé Nast Traveler,[18] Travel + Leisure,[19] and The Los Angeles Times Book Review.

As movie critic for American Vogue from 1990 to 1994, she served on the New York Film Festival selection committee.[20] From 1994 to 2001 she was editor-in-chief of French Vogue,[8] where she doubled the circulation and produced thematic year-end issues on cinema, art, music, sex, theater, and quantum physics[2].

For US Vogue, she profiled such cover subjects as Marion Cotillard,[21] Gisele Bündchen,[22] Carey Mulligan,[23] and Natalie Portman, writing also about the playwright Tom Stoppard[24] and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy for the magazine.[25] For Vanity Fair, she profiled people like Bernard-Henri Lévy[26] and Mike Nichols.[27] For the New Yorker her subjects included chronicler of Russian emigrés in Paris Nina Berberova, Princess Diana's relics post-death, and the actor Daniel Day-Lewis.[28][29][30]

She has appeared in numerous documentaries, among them James Kent's Fashion Victim, the Killing of Gianni Versace, Mark Kidel's Paris Whorehouse and Architecture of the Imagination. Buck narrated James Crump's 2007 documentary Black, White, and Gray, about art collector Sam Wagstaff and photographer Robert Mapplethorpe.

Since 2011, Buck has been the consulting editor to Dasha Zhukova on her Garage magazine which the New York Times called "one of the most intriguing magazines to come along in years."[4][31][32]

Performance

She began studying acting in 2002, and appears in Nora Ephron's 2009 movie Julie and Julia as Madame Elisabeth Brassart, head of the famed Le Cordon Bleu cooking school.[33][34][35][2] She wrote about the experience of auditioning for Ephron after she passed away in June 2012.[14]

In November 2009, she appeared in an action theater piece with other actors for Performa09 at the White Slab Palace in New York City.[36] Curated by Michael Portnoy and Sarina Basta, it was part of a week of Weimar cabaret,[37] and in it, Buck and another actor held a conversation guided by the third actor's random flashing of prompt cards.

In 2010, Buck played Mrs. Prest in an adaptation of The Aspern Papers, a Henry James novella, directed by first-time filmmaker Mariana Hellmund.[38] [39]

In May 2012, she appeared with comedian Eugene Mirman, performers Ira Glass, Lucy Wainwright Roche, and Amber Tamblyn in a night of interpretations of the Joan of Arc narrative at the Littlefield, a performance space in Brooklyn, New York.[40]

As a child, Buck was cast as a Scots waif in the Walt Disney film Greyfriars Bobby.[41]

Novels and adaptations

Buck's novels about multicultural expatriates are The Only Place To Be published by Random House in 1982 and Daughter Of The Swan published by Weidenfeld in 1987.[42][43] She was one of a long line of writers commissioned to adapt D. M. Thomas's novel The White Hotel. Her version was singled out by Thomas as "faithful and intelligent" among versions that included ones by the writer himself and Dennis Potter but the film has never been made.[44]

In 2009, the story "the Ghost Of The Rue Jacob"[45] was a big hit at The Moth. In February 2012, Buck went on "The Unchained Tour" through Georgia with George Green, founder of The Moth.[46][47]

Asma al-Assad article

In March 2011 Vogue published a profile that Buck wrote of Asma al-Assad, wife of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, describing her as "glamorous, young and very chic—the freshest and most magnetic of first ladies."[48] The piece caused a furor within foreign policy circles,[48] and media websites including The Atlantic attacked it as an ill-timed "puff piece" that ignored human rights abuses under Syria's Ba'athist regime.[49] In May 2011 the article was removed from Vogue's website.[48] The magazine had previously said that the piece took "more than a year" to cultivate.[49] Buck's contract was not renewed.[3]

Buck wrote an article about the assignment in Newsweek saying she had been been "duped" by the Assads and that she had not wanted to write the story which, among other things, "destroyed her livelihood."[50] Buck's follow-up was widely condemned. The Jewish Journal stated that is was a "mea culpa....really makes her seem shallow."[51] In Maclean's, Barbara Amiel said that at the time Buck wrote her original article, she was more politically active then she presented herself in this article and that Syria was already on the U.S. State Department list of state sponsors of terrorism.[52] Homa Khaleeli in the The Guardian said that the follow-up was almost as disastrous as the initial interview and did not describe how the Assads "duped" her.[53] Michael Totten, a winner of The Week magazine's "Blogger of The Year" award for his Middle East dispatches[54], said in World Affairs that although Assad was not yet a war criminal when Buck wrote her piece, it was well known that he was a totalitarian dictator whose state sponsored radical Islamist terrorist organizations[55].

Personal life

In 1977 Buck married John Heilpern, a journalist and writer; they divorced in the 1980s.[56][2]
