Lizzie Gottlieb on her father and LBJ biographer Robert Caro.
The start of a beautiful friendship: writer Robert Caro and editor Robert Gottlieb, the joint subjects of Lizzie Gottlieb's documentary,Cities are always in flux. Looking out of the window of the Fairmont, I mention to Lizzie Gottlieb that just about everything she could see of Austin – the convention center, the skyscrapers, even the restaurant we are sitting in – none of it existed a couple of decades ago.
Like most private conversations, the duo of Caro and Gottlieb have disagreed on who exactly conceived of this grand idea: but their irascible razzing of each other, of the idea that their work somehow fuses into one through arguments and exchanges, is all part Lizzie Gottlieb’s new film,It’s a story of a five-decade working relationship, viewed through the lens of the two Roberts’ push to get the fifth and final volume finished before … well, the inevitable.
Gottlieb himself is worthy of a documentary: The former editor-in-chief of Simon & Schuster, Alfred A. Knopf, and, and no slouch as a writer himself, his fingerprints have been over countless manuscripts by era-defining authors, many of whom he worked with “over decades and decades,” and who became part of young Lizzie’s life. “Toni Morrison and my father were very, very close.
“[Editing is] dedicating yourself to making each book be the best version of itself that it can possibly be.” - Lizzie Gottlieb
