He was educated at Eton and Oxford and wrote his first book, “Bosie: A Biography of Lord Alfred Douglas,” at age 20.

We will talk about many things including Donald Trump, his 10-year influence on America and global politics, the consequences of war in Gaza and Ukraine, the future of Western liberal values and Murray’s self-definition. My interview with Douglas Murray is another global conversation about America from the experience of those in media, politics, technology, entertainment, business, universities, and the law. We will include a variety of voices from the left, right, and center in those conversations. For more please visit: http://www.charlierose.com
