Compared to the time
Mike Tyson asked him for a
cuddle, our request for the
truth about London’s Soho
(
p68) must have seemed
like a cake walk. To Ben’s
surprise though, his hunt
“
exorcised all previously
held views about the area”.
Still, as the Tyson anecdote
and others from his time as
editor of
FHM
show, his job
is all about surprises. Or as
he describes it, “like having
the keys to the world”.

Meet some of the talented people behind this month’s issue
rama knight
After graduating art
college, Rama resigned
himself to the fact that he
“
wasn’t going to be the next
Hockney” pretty quickly.
“
I have a much better
relationship with my camera
than my paintbrush,” he
explains. We’d certainly
have to agree, after keenly
following his work at
The
Guardian
and
Monocle
,
and
choosing him to shoot our
feature on
The Killing
fields
of Copenhagen (p56).
stuart winter
Known to friends and fans
as “The Birdman, Stuart
was the perfect candidate
to write our wildlife
photography feature (p90).
What he’s forgotten about
nature in his 18-year career
would trounce others’
knowledge like an eagle vs
a pigeon. His aims, however,
are modest: “I just hope
what I write encourages
others to go and look at
nature. It’s the most exciting
thing on the planet,” he says.
caroline swanne
Under the pseudonym Jo
Bird, Caroline has been
hard at work this month
illustrating Steven Vickers’
Dice Man
trip to Budapest
(
p49). Having been to
eastern Europe, she found
herself sympathising
with the scrapes he was
forced into by those pesky
divination cubes. “I identified
with Steve being forced
to drink pálinka,” she says,
describing the local brandy
as “an acquired taste!”
