A journalist of more than forty years, he is a special correspondent at Vanity Fair, where he has written about crime, scandals, and other topics since 2000. His 2016 Vanity Fair story on the biggest burglary in British history, in which a gang of supposedly retired elderly London criminals broke into a vault in London’s Hatton Garden diamond district, was the basis of the 2018 film King of Thieves, starring Michael Caine, Jim Broadbent, and Michael Gambon.view less
