FUN FACT: I worked at Gourmet + Condé Nast's Corporate Art department the summer of my junior year (1999), after winning SVA's most coveted as well as generous (full-tuition + salary) senior year design scholarship: The Bea Feitler. ||| FUN FACT #2: Word on the street has it that the average Gourmet staffer used to gain at least 10 taste-testing pounds per year.
