Interview

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yes. In high school, I learned how to type on an IBM Selectric typewriter. The kind where you had to use a piece of correction tape if you made a mistake.

Who's your favorite fictional journalist?

Lou Grant

What's your favorite social network?

I find social media to be a veritable dumpster fire. The only platform I use is Facebook -- for now.

Did you work for your high school newspaper? If so, what did you do there?

I worked on my high school newspaper all four years. I began as a reporter, became a columnist, and served as editor-in-chief my senior year.

Aside from your own, what's your favorite publication to read?

I'm a fan of The New Yorker, The Atlantic, and Vanity Fair.
