Congratulations to our writers who will be reading their work at our January 2010 show “Me 2.0″! Learn a little more about below. We’ll also be showcasing the talents of select photographers and one fabulous DJ. Mark your calendars for Thursday, January 21 at Space Gallery. Come for a good laugh – the show starts at 7:30!
Writer’s Bios
Genevieve Falk is a lapsed lawyer who has found that the skills she developed working in a large law firm transferred seamlessly to her new field of psychotherapy. She lives in the East Bay with her husband and two young children, works as a therapist by day and writes in her spare time (between 10:57 and 11:09 each evening).
Michael Frisbie who lives and works–often simultaneously–in San Francisco, is too complex and enigmatic to be summed up in a couple of sentences. Three would probably do it, though.
Hugh Hunter spends his days working for “The Man,” and his evenings fighting crime. By fighting crime he means, playing Xbox and producing hellacast, a podcast that takes a look at the lighter side of living in the bay area.
Caroline Koch lives in the Bay Area with her husband, her nineteen-month-old son, and his BFF, Winnie the Pooh. Writing and cycling are two of her outlets. She tries not to swear at home, but sometimes it’s a tall order. Dark chocolate seems to help.
Christin Rice lives and loves in San Francisco, where she can be found staring out café windows while finishing a novel. She can also be found at the RedRoom.
Mike Shur was born in Leningrad, U.S.S.R. and was nearly killed in Rome, Italy. He began writing at the age of 4 with incomprehensible scribbles in Russian and today he writes marketing emails in English.
Photographers
Jason Croatto is a San Francisco based, somewhat recently transplanted from LA designer, originally from New York. When Jason is not designing interfaces or marketing materials for a Silicon Valley technology company he can usually be found designing on his own, or wandering around outside with a camera in hand.
PJ Taylor embarked upon a journey in 2006 to take and post a new picture online everyday. The accumulation of entries became a loose visual diary. PJ has an insatiable appetite to shoot anything from macros to nature to street photography.
Tara Spalty has been officially fighting the Forces of Evil since 2006 (and winning). Her preferred medium of expression is the scented candle, although she works with film for the sake of convenience. Tara’s favorite article of clothing is her New Year’s Eve 2010 Dress, which she has worn ever day so far this year.
DJ
Grant Patterson enjoys playing all sorts of music that makes people move. He is particularly interested in underground electro house and breaks, for which there is a bountiful scene in San Francisco. Grant grew up in New Jersey and hopes you won’t hold it against him. He works as a web engineer for Virgance, a company in SoMa that aims to make money while producing social good.
