Overview
Playboy was a lot more than bunnies and centrefolds.
Playboy has always been about titillation and fantasy. It also published some of the twentieth centuries most brilliant journalism. Central to this was the legendary Playboy Interview: candid, in-depth conversations with the defining personalities of the age. Over the decades, beloved cultural icons and controversial political leaders alike sat down with the magazine, speaking with remarkable openness about their lives, beliefs, ambitions and the challenges of modern life.
Read It For the Articles offers a new perspective on one of America’s most divisive publications. Between the pin-ups, Muhammad Ali reflects on American racism and converting to Islam, Fidel Castro defends socialist Cuba, Yasser Arafat discusses the Israel–Palestine conflict and Betty Friedan delivers a blistering critique of the Playboy Bunny. These freewheeling conversations offered a vivid snapshot of history as it unfolded, free from any particular political agenda.
