The New Yorker this week has a long article on Dan Mallory, a Duke grad who wrote a best seller "The Woman in the Window." Evidently he has a long history of lying about his health and other issues. I saw something in LA Times where he acknowledged it.

Wondered if anyone has any comments. I graduated way before he was on campus and have not read the book. Can not figure out why anyone who would say make these false statements about themself.

Thanks
