NEW YORK — The editor of the Paris Review has resigned amid allegations of sexual harassment. Magazine board president Terry McDonell told The Associated Press that Lorin Stein submitted his resignation on Wednesday. The Paris Review, one of the world’s most prestigious literary journals, was founded in 1953 and edited by George Plimpton for 50 years. “The Paris Review has no tolerance for sexual harassment,” the Review said in a statement. Stein had been a fulltime editor at FSG before joining the Review and had worked with such prize winning authors as Denis Johnson and Jonathan Franzen.
