Are there good essays by writer re their editors? I've read biographies of writers where editors play a role, and diaries where writers talk re editors, but is there an essay by a writer re their editor(s)? Would love to write an "Editors I Have Known" piece; looking for models.
The main Ross biography (Genius In Disguise) is good and has stuff on his editing tactics. Even better is Ross' letters -- which really show him interacting with writers and massaging their work.
