The New York Times

“There’s something exciting about leaving a job. I can’t explain it,” she tells The New York Times, which dubs her "The Grande Dame of Documentary Films." “I have deprived my life of a life. All I did was work. I was, like, born at HBO and I don’t have to die there,” Nevins tells Dowd. “If I stayed any longer, I probably would have died at my desk. I just regret that there’s so little time left.”
