HotSeats Galore

Earlier this week, we put USDE longtimer Fritz Edelstein on the HotSeat, where he told all sorts of secrets that only a 31-year USDE veteran can tell. But he's hardly the first. As some of you have requested, here are some past favorites:

Rick Hess -- A Liberals' Kind Of Conservative
Those rumors about good-looking slaves doing all his writing for him aren't true.

NYT Magazine's Paul Tough On The HotSeat
What he really thinks about school reform and social policy.

Matt Maurer & The Shadowy World Of Education PR Companies
Why it's better to get an AP story than one in the NYT.

Journalism Guru Richard Lee Colvin...
What makes a good education story? You might be surprised.

Fordham's Petrilli Survives The HotSeat
He'll always be our first -- and perhaps one of our funniest.

KIPP Co-Founder Mike Feinberg On The HotSeat

Any others you liked, or suggestions for future HotSeats, let us know.
