Gardner Botsford grew up in a Manhattan town house under the benign eye of five live-in servants, a charming and cultivated stepfather, and a mother whose beauty and wit attracted admirers ranging from the statesman Averell Harriman, to comic genius Harpo Marx. Botsford attended Yale, summered in France and on Long Island, married a popular and attractive girl, and won an enviable job as a reporter on and “The New Yorker and ” – then, in 1942, his life of privilege was rudely interrupted. Drafted into the infantry, he trained as an officer, and on D-day landed with the First Infantry Division on Omaha Beach in Normandy. He went on to witness the liberation in Paris (by going AWOL) and to fight in the Battle of the Bulge. Back at and “The New Yorker and “, Botsford was made an editor, a position he would hold until his retirement in 1982. and “A Life of Privilege, Mostly and ” concludes with a series of memorable vignettes about life on the magazine and about New Yorker ornaments such as A.J. Liebling, Maeve Brennan and William Shawn, Botsford’s long-time friend, mentor, boss, and, at the last, adversary.
