A tidbit that ran in the Yale Daily news:

Saybrook College and the Poynter Fellowship present a conversation with Mark Gevisser, SY ’87, Southern Africa correspondent for The Nation, and, Jacob Dlamini, GRD ’12
After graduating from Yale in 1987 magna cum laude with a degree in comparative literature, Mark Gevisser worked in New York, writing for the Village Voice and The Nation before returning to South Africa in 1990. He is currently The Nation’s Southern African correspondent. In South Africa, his work has appeared in the Mail & Guardian, the Sunday Independent, the Sunday Times and many magazines and periodicals. Internationally, he has published widely on South African politics, culture and society, in publications ranging from Vogue and the New York Times to Foreign Affairs and Art in America.
