Drew Hunt

Bio:
I started at the Reader as an intern in January 2012, during my last semester at Columbia College. I'm now the Editorial Assistant—a job that, in addition to managing a vast database of essential cultural events, allows me to occasionally contribute reviews to our film section—quite literally a dream come true, as I’ve followed and revered the careers of many a Reader film critic long before I walked through the Reader's doors. My writing on film can also be found over at Slant magazine. I really like pizza, English bulldogs, college football, and coffee.

Drew Hunt writes film-related top five lists every Sunday.
