Does anyone recall the book that was reviewed in the most recent Whole Earth Catalog that covered how to do a great interview?  I know Cool Tools mentions a book on oral histories, I'm looking for the one that is specifically on interviews (I think the quote from the book had to do with an interview of JFK).  Thank you.

Thought it’s not a book, this is one of my favorite collections of advice about how to conduct a great interview:

Interviewing Performing Artists

The best way to learn how to make good interviews is by reading great ones. Hans Ulrich Obrist, Interviews Volume 2 (Vol. 1 costs too much)  and The Paris Reviews interview archives.
