About Brian

Brian was Editor-in-Chief of Time Out New York magazine before coming to Patch. Before that he worked for a variety of publications both online and off, including Details magazine, New York Magazine, and the old, dearly departed Sidewalk.com. He has written for numerous publications, from the New York Times magazine to Harper's Bazaar. He graduated from Bowdoin College and got an MFA in creative writing at Columbia University so he could put his novel in a drawer with distinction. He lives in Manhattan with his beautiful wife, adorable son, angelic daughter and the world's most dog-like cat. He’s proud as hell of what the Patch team has built. You can reach him at brian@patch.com.

Brian, what is the policy on personal attacks from your columnists? On the Geneva Patch Jeff Ward made a unfounded personal attack on the Geneva Chamber of Commerce President. It dosen't seem like the right spirit for this publication. Your thoughts?

What is your policy on police blotters? Some of your editors are failing to add the word "allegedly" and you are running items/names about the most minor offenses -- like a teen arrested for staying in a park after dark.
