I moved to downtown Manhattan in 2002 and now live in Brooklyn's Clinton Hill neighborhood. I know most of my friends through my work designing art books and art-directing fashion magazines. Now that I have a wife and daughter, the most fun parts of my week take place during the day instead of at night.
