Sarah Lacy on her new book from JD Lasica on Vimeo.
One of the people I had the best time bonding with on our Innovation Israel trip to Tel Aviv in April was tech journalist Sarah Lacy. Sarah has a new book out: Once You’re Lucky, Twice You’re Good, a narrative-driven look at the rise, fall and resurrection of Silicon Valley’s startup culture, from Mark Andreessen to Mark Zuckerberg.
In this 11-minute video interview conducted on a windy beach in Tel Aviv, Sarah talks about startup CEOs and her phenomenal access to get some insidery info about the people driving the Web 2.0 revolution.
This is also the first time I’ve used the video sharing site Vimeo, which is aiming for producers creating higher-quality works. I liked the experience. Surprising that their default for new videos seems to be a private sharing setting (easily changed to public).

Here’s a small photo set of Sarah from our interview shoot. (Sarah needs publicity shots for her book tour! Note: These were taken from a hi-def camcorder, so Sarah didn’t "pose" for them.)
