Rachel Profiling

Hello, I'm Rachel.

Writer/editor. New Mexican tumbleweed blown east to skyscraper country.

Right now, I am working on a book about F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sheilah Graham, and Hollywood in the 1930s. It will also contain a lot of drinking, powder blue suits, dances at the Cocoanut Grove, betrayal, gossip columns, crazy ladies, secret Jews, film lot moguls, and Dorothy Parker quips at funerals. If the world is still around then, it should be out from Random House around 2014. So let's hope the Mayans were wrong.

If you want to say hi please do. Or find me in short form, here.

OMG I made a movie. Well, kinda. I got a new AVCHD camera (by sheer luck) and I am ever so slowly learning how to use it and edit video. I’m so far from expertise it’s laughable, but here is my first interview, with my 21-year-old little brother about his thoughts on 2008. Nothing fancy but I’m just excited to be using this thing!
