-Uptown girl or Downtown girl?
I was born a downtown girl. I remember eating my first piece of
sushi when I was three on the roof of our Bowery apartment building.
-Where do you live and why?
The Poconos, because it is cheap and I can make my art in peace.
Jupiter, Florida because it is an escapist fantasy land, and NYC
because it is necessary.
My girlfriend makes the best eggs in the city. Brunch is better half naked.
-Favorite place for cocktails?Anywhere that makes a perfect gin martini. L'express makes a note worthy one, ...oh and and Petes Candy Store for their 'Indochine cocktail' gin, ginger liqueur, fresh lime, soda water and sugar. Yum. I am a gin girl.
-Tell us what you do?
I am an artist. I like to create huge murals and puff paint
everything I can get my hands on. I am also deeply immersed in an
ongoing everlasting film collaboration with Sarah Stuve. Our
experimental short film 'My Dead Brain' will be screening at MIX 22
festival, beginning November 20.
-What can we expect from you in the future?
A complete online series of 'How To' videos available on
Howcast.com, Hulu and Joost. (visit Howcast.com to view my "Webbie"
award nominated video, 'How to Meet Men'). I am also finalizing a
series of works on canvas called 'Eggs' and am about to begin
producing a new film called 'The Future Perfect', updates and
exclusives for all future projects can be seen at

-Do you have a favorite place to watch film in NYC?
Theater 1 at the The Village East Cinema on 2nd and 11 for its
classic Baroque design.
-What fiction novel would you like to see as a movie in the future.
Easy. Herland. But Sarah and I are gonna adapt it way better.
I was Cleopatra without a doubt.
-What is a starlet?
Judy,Rosalind, Joan, Tippi....oooooh and Julie Andrews, I've had a crush on
Julie ever since Victor Victoria.
-How do you find inspiration?
Films made in technicolor, children's books, candy, beautiful women, and great make-up sex.
-Give us advice on Romance...
"Absence makes the heart grow fonder".
