Good interview.  I've been reading a couple of his books recently which give some good insights for securities analysis of corporate filings.  Loved this quote:

Whitman:  One of the things about buy-and-hold value investing is that it is not labor-intensive. It is not stressful, unlike most things on Wall Street. Just look of the number of value guys who have survived to over 100. I give you Roy Neuberger and Irving Kahn. It is a nice business.

good article but I was disappointed with the quality of questions that the interviewer asked. He could have asked such better questions.
