Teenage Jonathan Franzen. (2nd from right, via Paris Review) He might agree, as may we all hope, he has improved with age.

Granted I kind of slanted the case for that by picking one of the better current pictures. There are some that are not so great.

yeah, i know. but i think you could pick his most flattering teen photo & put it next to a mediocre contemporary photo of him and the effect would be the same.

The author photo for The Corrections was amazing; it made him look like a model for Jos. A. Bank or like the fifth partner of Sterling, Cooper, Draper, Pryce and Franzen.
