ABOUT CARA
I am a New York-based entertainment journalist.
I began my career as an intern at Spy magazine, where I engaged in such activities as calling up gossip columnists and asking them how many "X"s they had in their Rolodex. I’ve interviewed box office heavyweights, including Julia Roberts and Tom Hanks, but my friends’ kids think my biggest claim to fame is that Lin-Manuel Miranda knows who I am.
My work has been featured in The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Time Out New York, The Miami Herald, Jazz Weekly, Spin, Encore, The Forward, Soap Opera Weekly and more. I ghostwrote a memoir that I'm not allowed to provide details about, but is pretty good. Additionally, I write theater industry features for BroadwayWorld.
When I'm not absorbing entertainment or writing, I spend a lot of time volunteering, predominantly with charities focused on improving the lives of women and children who have been abused. I am also Community Outreach Chair for the Wellesley College New York Club, coordinating our volunteer efforts.
