The Author

Rumsey Taylor is formerly the creator and editor of Not Coming to a Theater Near You, a film publication that assumes a bias towards older and repertory cinema. He has additionally contributed to The New York Times, The Village Voice, The Boston Phoenix, The Brooklyn Rail, and Senses of Cinema. He works professionally as a graphic designer, and likes subway maps, drawing expressive to-do lists on the back of his hand, and not throwing shoeboxes away. His favorite film is probably The Fly.
