Kathy's Bio

Lets's see...I was born in Connecticut, raised in Alaska and have lived in Seattle since 1988. First SIFF film I ever saw: The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years. I've been volunteering for SIFF since 1994; for the past four years, I've written for the program guide. Since 1988, I've also volunteered for KCMU/KEXP, the Hugo House and—of course—Tablet (for which I reviewed CDs, films, and books).

I just quit my day job and am now doing the freelance thing full-time. My main
gig is with Amazon (CDs and DVDs), but I also write/have written for The Anchor-
age Times, Seattle Sound, Resonance, the All Music Guide, Film.com, Microsoft Cin-
emania, Reel News, and Trouser Press. Oh, and I was a DJ for almost 20 years
(KWHL, KNDD, etc.), but am currently on hiatus. And I have two (crazy) cats.

P.S. I look nothing like Barbara Stanwyck, but can't imagine a better avatar!
