Maureen Dowd has a pleasant piece in January's Vanity Fair profiling Tina Fey. Dowd tells the little-known story of how Tina Fey got the scar on the side of her face (she was randomly assaulted by a stranger with a knife who slashed her when she was 5) and the more well-known story of Fey's transformation into "the sex symbol for every man who reads without moving his lips" in Michael Specter's phrase.
