Blogs
When my daughter was an infant, I listened to music with her and kept this blog in her voice, as if she were reviewing the albums.
The Examining Magistrate on Culture
I started this blog to write about pop culture, mainly music and film. I discontinued it after I started writing for TinyMixTapes (see Criticism/Journalism below), so the more recent posts are just links to that site and Maggie's Music.
Complicated Sandwich Appreciation Society
The title of this blog speaks for itself.
Criticism/Journalism
Over several years I wrote more than 50 film reviews for this esteemed culture webzine, plus one music review (for the Beastie Boys' final album).
While working as a grant writer for the American Music Center, I wrote this article about a project to restore scores by the legendary jazz musician Thad Jones.
