Gillian Jacobs | The Last Magazine
I met Gillian Jacobs in Fall of 2008. Her name was coming up often in film festival circles, having just five projects under her belt. Today, Gillian has blossomed into a much sought after actress, both in comedy and drama. You may remember her from the show Community, with Talk Soup’s Joe McHale or that […]

Felicity Jones | The Last Magazine
You may recognize Felicity from our favourite quarantine movie this past Christmas 2020, Netflix’ The Midnight Sky, costarring George Clooney. This interview was published in The Last Magazine in the Fall of 2009, as her star was rising. Five years after this piece, the British actress earned her first Oscar nomination for The Theory of […]

Andrea Riseborough | The Last Magazine
This profile of Andrea Riseborough was written over a decade ago, when she was sharp on our radar as “one to watch”.

Editor-in-Chief | The Standard Culture
The Standard Hotel Culture Site was a delightful experience. My mission was to help editorially capture the voice of the already cool brand and translate it into a culture site that highlighted their programs, their specific properties, and forward-thinking initiatives. The main priority was to increase sales, build awareness, and drive traffic to the hotel […]

The A.I. Love Story
Bladerunner, Weird Science, and a ton of others. Year after year, Hollywood keeps asking the same question over again. Can science create the perfect mate? Spike Jonze just released his version of a simulated love story with his film HER. Compared to Carl Reiners 1983 flick, it seems we are all doomed to repeat the […]
