John King

While someone did once tell him that an English major was the most common degree for Fortune 500 CEOs, looking back, it’s always been about the words for King. From song lyrics to Bill Simmons’ epic Mailbag columns that were ideally suited to print off and take to the office bathroom in the mid 2000’s—yes, words matter. When he’s not imagining himself in Taylor Sheridan’s West Texas landscape, King spends most of his life on the thin margin between being the story and having one to tell.
