Interview with Leif Ueland
Salon has an interview with Leif Ueland about his new book Accidental Playboy: Caught in the Ultimate Male Fantasy, which chronicles his gig as writer-photographer for Playboy's crosscountry bus tour search for the Miss Millennium playmate. "The ultimate male fantasy? Perhaps for some, but not necessarily for Leif Ueland. A neurotic, hyper-self-aware Minnesota native descended from a long line of strong feminist role models, Ueland at first found the idea of spending six months with Playboy hopefuls unsettling, vaguely predatory, maybe a little sad. But in the course of the adventures ... he discovers a not so surprising (to us), but unexpectedly lovely (to Ueland) thing: Desire can be fun."
