Editor and writer Walter Kirn and casting director and actress Joanna Merlin on this edition of Fresh Air. Kirn's new novel Up in the Air is about 35-year-old Ryan Bingham, a well-traveled business man who has a goal of accumulating one million miles in his frequent flyer account. Kirn is the literary editor for GQ and a contributing editor to Time and Vanity Fair. His fiction and nonfiction work has appeared in The New Yorker and the New York Times Magazine. He's also the author of two other novels and a selection of short stories.

And Merlin's written a new guide for actors, Auditioning: An Actor-Friendly Guide. She was the casting director for Harold Prince and his productions of Follies, A Little Night Music, Sweeney Todd, Evita, and more. She's casted films, as well as acted in films and on television.
