Andrew Yarrow '79Andrew L. Yarrow '79, in his new book, "LOOK: How a Highly Influential Magazine Helped Define Mid-20th Century America," tells the story of Look magazine, one of the greatest mass-circulation publications in American history, and the very different United States in which it existed. The all-but-forgotten magazine had an extraordinary influence on mid-twentieth-century America, not only by telling powerful, thoughtful stories and printing outstanding photographs but also by helping to create a national conversation around a common set of ideas and ideals.

Yarrow majored in history at UCLA.
