Glenn Gaslin has worked in fast food and newspapers.
His pop culture criticism has appeared in the Los Angeles Times, Entertainment Weekly, Slate, the NY Post and plenty of weird publications you've never heard of. These days, he's a father, author and senior editor at E! Online. His first novel, Beemer(TM), has won no awards nor been made into a slick little indie flick, despite being optioned for just such a thing. He's working on a second one anyway.
