New York / Park

Prospect Park is a great place to have a water balloon fight, a picnic, a jog, and play with other people's dogs.

New York / Bar

Chavela's makes delicious authentic Mexican food and its around the corner from my house, so I come here a lot. They make a mean margarita, and you can't beat their happy hour prices. $2 tacos? Yes, please. The decor is bright and lively, and the bar is made of beautiful Mexican tiles.

New York / Cinema

I love sneaking over here in the middle of the day to see a movie - they always have the best selection of films. I recently saw Pina in 3D and The Kid with a Bike here, and another time I saw Bela Fleck play the banjo after a screening of Throw Down Your Heart.

New York / Bar

Bowling, beer, and pool - what more could a girl ask for? I'd like to start a bowling league here in the fall. Some possible league names include The Crystal Bowls, Disembowled, and Ebowlo Virus. I'm open to suggestions.

New York / Museum

German Expressionism makes me giddy. All my favorites are here at any given time - George Grosz, Otto Dix, Egon Schiele, Gustave Klimt - and the building was designed Carrére and Hastings, the same architects that designed the New York Public Library.

New York / Creative Director

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.
