“I found that I really liked writing about human beings. I found I could apply my approach to anything,” said author Ian O'Connor. “I don't feel like I write about quarterbacks and center-fielders and shooting guards as much as I write about human beings.” Ian's most recent focus is Coach K. Mike Krzyzewski is a five-time national champion at Duke, the NCAA's all-time leader in victories with nearly 1,200, and the first man to lead Team USA to three Olympic basketball gold medals. This book is the unauthorized, yet definitive biography. In this interview, Ian talks about his mentor David McCraw, his view of what it means to be a reporter and columnist, why he writes in chronological order, and how he chooses subjects, including Bill Belichick, Derek Jeters, Arnold Palmer, and Jack Nicklaus.
