77 | Said | Niemi | m | In the early 1980s, Carr got his first job at the alternative weekly Twin Cities Reader where he became its editor. He also edited the Washington City Paper. He wrote extensively about the media for The Atlantic Monthly and New York. He joined The New York Times in 2002, where he was a cultural reporter and wrote The New York Times Carpetbagger blog. He remained at The New York Times until his death. In his 2008 memoir, The Night of the Gun, Carr detailed his experiences with cocaine addiction and included interviews with people from his past, tackling his memoir as if he were reporting on himself. The memoir was excerpted in The New York Times Magazine. Carr was a mentor for the writer Ta-Nehisi Coates, who said in 2019: "I couldn't imagine myself as a writer if I had not met David Carr. David Carr was the first person who ever believed in me." Carr was also credited for launching Lena Dunham's career and was described by Gawker's John Koblin as the "Daddy" of TV series Girls. He was featured prominently in the 2011 documentary Page One: Inside the New York Times, where he was shown interviewing staff from Vice, whom Carr called out for their lack of journalistic knowledge. The article about Vice was noteworthy for its clear depiction of the conflict between new online journalism and traditional journalism. In 2014, he was named the Lack Professor of Media Studies at Boston University, a part-time position where he taught a journalism class called Press Play: Making and distributing content in the present future. | Carr divorced his first wife, Kimberly, in 1986. In 1988, he had twin daughters, Erin and Meagan, with partner Anna Lee. The couple lost custody of the children, who went into foster care until Carr went through rehab and gained custody of the girls. Erin Lee Carr is a documentary film director. He married his second wife, Jill L. Rooney, in 1994; the couple had one child, a daughter, Maddie. He described himself as a church-going Roman Catholic. He resided in Montclair, New Jersey, with his wife and three daughters. Carr had previously battled Hodgkin's lymphoma, and reported developing his hoarse speaking voice during his coverage of the aftermath of the September 11 attacks. | In the early 1980s, Carr got his first job at the alternative weekly Twin Cities Reader where he became its editor.
