 Allan Gould > Magazines > Profiles > "Homage to Cohen: Nathan Cohen Remembered"
Nathan Cohen was made for radio, and it is almost a shame that he is better remembered today for his newspaper columns, with their purple prose and mannered, turgid, clumsy style.
Cohen was usually right, if any critic can be described as being "right." Although he refused to socialize with theatre people (beyond his frequent interview lunches, which he single-handedly pioneered in Toronto journalism), that did not prevent him from becoming involved behind the scenes.
Usually, Cohen would arrive at the Star at 9:15 a.m., work until 6 p.m., grab a dinner, see a play, go home, dash off his review by 1:30 a.m., send it in by cab, watch one or two late-night movies, or write and research until 6, and be up again at 8.
