The stories in Jon Stewart's Naked Pictures of Famous People span the globe and cut through all of human history, lampooning the foibles of, for the most part, real people.
In only a few stories is place a crucial element. These include "Breakfast at Kennedy's," which first looks at campus life at the prestigious Choate School in Connecticut in 1934 and then switches to the Kennedy compound at Hyannis, MA. "Lack of Power: the Ford Tapes" provides an insider's look in the White House Oval Office. "The Last Supper, or the Dead Waiter" hearkens back to Jerusalem at Passover in the days of Jesus Christ, focusing on a trendy restaurant. The manuscript in which the story is told is found in the Sinai by a German tourist beneath sands and a Starbucks. Finally, "The Devil and William Gates" depends on being set in Gate's hometown, Seattle, WA.
