Faking It
The Leonard Lopate Show | May 10, 2010
James Frey and JT Leroy stunned readers and publishers when it became clear they weren’t who they said they were, but they were hardly the first to pull a hoax. Paul Maliszewski was one of those literary fakers when he worked for a small business magazine. He explains how he did it and why in his book Fakers: Hoaxers, Con Artists, Conterfeiters and Other Great Pretenders.
