If you've clicked on this page, its probably because you want to know who the heck is running this joint! Well, you've come to the right place. The GLITTER Staff is made up of a small group of volunteers, most of whom have been around for a long, long time in one capacity or another.

As a special get-to-know-you treat for our members and visitors, we have kindly urged (or, more accurately, poked, prodded and ordered) all our staff members to write up a fun little bio to share with all of you, and we have also created email accounts for each staff member, should our members need to contact our staff. We thank you in advance for sending all your questions/comments/concerns to the correct e-mail address, and for being patient with us! Check out the bios below!

-The GLITTER STAFF Bios-

NAME: Aly

A.K.A. Sugar Therapy, Alykinz, Allison Janney, Alycat, Flamingo

LIKES: shiny objects; chinese food; MAC computers; Uggs; naming her electronics; and her cat, Emma.

DISLIKES: alarm clocks, PCs, the N train, heels, and skinny jeans.

FAVORITE KRISTIN SHOW/CHARACTER: The Apple Tree; Annabeth Schott.

BIO: Aly likes pina coladas, and getting caught in the rain. She hails from the great state of Minnesota, but has now settled in the VERY Greek neighborhood of Astoria, Queens. Like everyone else, she moved to New York with fabulous dreams of becoming a Broadway star, then realized she'd rather pay her rent. So she switched to Art History, only to find that there’s no money in that EITHER, and now she just annoys her friends with useless art trivia. She moonlights as a Broadway merch slave, hocking her wares at the Gershwin Theater, and when she is not selling t-shirts or avidly avoiding her homework, she spends her time trolling the Glitter boards on her BlackBerry, and pretending to do something useful with her time.

POSITION:  Coordinator, Lead designer.

 

NAME: Janice

A.K.A. abbycarter, JPlo, JJ, Janie (her favorite!).

LIKES: Kissing George Clooney, Snakes named Elphie, Anything Australian (but, mostly Keith Urban and Hugh Jackman), Cheese of any kind, being a Peep, Brad with Angelina, Soap Opera Digest, Barry Manilow, Shopping at Bloomies with my nieces, British humor especially when in the form of Jennifer Saunders, and Rocky 1-5.

DISLIKES: Rocky 6, The dissolution of comedy television today, Sharks, Cosmopolitan magazine, People who think they can drive, but clearly can't, Actors who'd rather be politicians, MAC computers, and Other women kissing George Clooney.

FAVORITE KRISTIN SHOW/CHARACTER: Princess Barbara in The Apple Tree (nothing better than Chenoweth with a giant whip! ;-) ) and when she finally gets around to portraying her, Dusty Springfield.

BIO: Janice was born and raised outside Los Angeles to a father who worked in the entertainment industry and a mother who worked with children. In a very strange twist of fate Janice now does both, working by morning at a major motion picture studio and by afternoon as a nanny in Beverly Hills. Go figure!! She is a proud child of the 80's where Vanilla Ice, Paula Abdul (pre-Idol!), and Whitney Huston (pre-Crack!) were staples on her boom box(pre-iPod!), and where she was sure she was a long lost Huxtable child! Blue eyeshadow, metallic pink Wet 'n Wild lipgloss, and her crimper soon gave way to the classy lady who remains today. The one who snorts when she laughs too hard, loses all ability to speak normally around Audra McDonald, and on occasion forgets to put on her eyebrows! Oh, and she's never actually kissed George Clooney, but she imagines it to be a wonderfully magical experience!

POSITION: Assistant Coordinator.

 

NAME: Rhonda

A.K.A. chance, rhons, rhondalicious, rc, rc cola, hey you..

By day -- graphic designer/computer nerd ... by night -- community thespian.

POSITION: Assistant Webmaster, Moderator.

NAME: Jamie

A.K.A. SweetJamie, J, Jamers, Jamiekinz, Jamie G, little sister, JamJam

LIKES: Patty Griffin, MAC computers, twinkly lights, camp, Levain, Crumbs cupcakes, her Saturn Ion, New York, dinner with the Westies, used CD stores, changing people’s identities with magic ponytail holders, and Grey’s Anatomy.

DISLIKES: traffic, tomatoes, mean people, snow, Bluetooth earpieces – you look like crazy people!!!, restaurants with no dessert menus (seriously?? Seriously?! Who doesn’t have a dessert menu!), and living far away from her friends.

FAVORITE KRISTIN SHOW/CHARACTER: You're A Good Man Charlie Brown/Sally Brown.

BIO: Jamie likes long moonlit walks on the beach, poetry, and horseback riding. Born in the hood near Detriot, she enjoyed kickin it with her homies (what up, Marshall?!), avoiding the cops, and making “important business deals.” Sensing that she needed a change, her parents moved her to Arizona, far from her former life of crime. Then, on her 15th birthday, she discovered country music, and was reborn into a life of two-steppin, denim, rhinestones, and long-neck beers. She is lookin for a man who appreciates the finer things in life – In and Out burger, flip flops, and cheap bars. If you’re interested, give her a buzz at 555-0263.

POSITION:  Newsgroup Moderator.

NAME: Kimmie

A.K.A. Galindafication, Kikkie, Giggles, Princess, The Brunette, Pie.

LIKES: Torrid affairs with expensive electronics; spending too much money on live theatre; macaroni & cheese; NY pizza; bright and shiny objects; listening to little children laugh; late nights in NYC with my peeps; and car karaoke with my best friend.

DISLIKES: Earthquakes; hospital emergency rooms; the buttons on my cell phone; masks; malfunctioning electronics; insomnia; the fact that NYC is on the opposite coast.

FAVORITE KRISTIN SHOW/CHARACTER: Eve in The Apple Tree (The most brilliant thing she has ever done!).

BIO: Kimmie was born and raised in sunny Southern California, which is not all it is cracked up to be. The only things cracked up about said state are the fault lines running through it. She has been declared an honorary New Yorker by the NYC Glitter staff, and enjoys spending time in a state with seasons! She also enjoys playing with alligators in fishbowls, and closing her eyes in photos. She sings "I'm A Little Teapot" with her fellow munchkins from Oz, and loud and proud off key in the car -- whether she knows the words or not. She often lives in her own little world, ruled by Disney princesses and delayed flights to Neverland -- where the days are so magical she can feel her heart smile and laughs till she cries. Kimmie spends her days kickin' up her heels and discovering new and shiny things on Millie the Mac, her laptop and creator of the pretty things she contributes to the Glitter site. She is fiercely loyal, because her friends are her family and she is thankful for them every single day.

POSITION:  Assistant Designer, Moderator.

DISLIKES: Pink and Green, stupid people, waiting in line and frozen peas.

FAVORITE KRISTIN SHOW/CHARACTER: Cunegonde in Candide.

BIO: Erin was born in an orange grove in central Florida. That became dull with only cows as friends so she made her way up to Alabama for school. Surprisingly the only difference was instead of orange trees and cows....She now found herself surrounded by cotton and cows. Then for her next big leap in life...She hauled her Rerun self over the Mason Dixon line in the hope that she would finally escape the ever present cattle. She came to Massachusetts for Law School....Got a nice legal like job that she loves….became a Red Sox Fan....discovered Kristin….realized Broadway itself was better than touring shows…. found some amazing friends that had a certain fan club they needed help with….and finally ditched the cows.

POSITION:  Staff Advisor

 

NAME: Cristin

AKA: The NonCheno (I'm talking to Cristin - ohmigod, CHENOWETH??? -No. Not Chenoweth....), CRISTIN!!! WHITLEY!!! FROM FLORIDA!!!, the mod with the best hair, NC, the Whit, CJW, the Original Kristin Chenoweth Fan (Aly says so. And Aly is in charge.)

LIKES: Chips and Salsa, Playing my Guitar, Musicians (talent is hawt), Riding the subway upside down, Sleeping in, Cashing paychecks, Attending concerts (fave singer: www.juliefoldesi.com ... Cristin is Julie's OFFICIAL groupie!), seeing shows on and off the Broad Way, supporting all her talented fabulous friends, Performing in musicals despite the fact that she is NOT a singer, Bikram Yoga, Fat Free Muffins, Magnetic Poetry and all it entails.

DISLIKES: Seafood, Mean people, Raspberries (or as they are often called "deathberries"), Last Call (particularly when it comes before 2 am... what the crap, Tanglewood?), Tourists who stop in the middle of the sidewalk, being pushed into walls by Idina Menzel (it happened), Flossing, All of the Arquettes, most of the Baldwins, and her alarm clock.

FAVE CHENOWETH SHOW/CHARACTER: Kristin Yancey on NBC's long running highly acclaimed hit TV show "KRISTIN"

BIO: Born in Alabama, raised in Florida, Cristin hurried out of the South as fast as her little legs could carry her. To make ends meet, she resorted to such cruel torture as waitressing at Planet Hollywood, selling shirts at Banana Republic, and one memorable Christmas season as an elf at Macys (Her elf name? Elfaba). Currently residing in the tiniest studio apartment in all of Manhattan (no, seriously... it's small), she splits her days between working in theatrical sales, ushering Broadway shows at night (Local 306 Ushers Union, represent!), answering phones and booking classes at the New York City Guitar School, and trying and failing to make it to the gym. Cristin also has been known to perform in musicals in Brooklyn and is yearning for the day she can appear on stage without having to cross a body of water (casting peeps, take note). Cristin has been a fan of that OTHER Kristin for many, many moons now and will gladly recount the tale of when Kristin stopped midconcert to come down in the audience and take a picture with her and every little old person in Boca Raton, Florida went "awwww." And that's a lot of old folks!

POSITION: Project Staff.

NAME: Millie

A.K.A. sillymillie85, Silly Millie, Millers, the OTHER Minnesotan.

LIKES: singing, rollergirls, cute boys, NY, beaches, roses, drivers, sleeping, watching the rain fall, sun glasses, laughing.

DISLIKES: not sleeping, English class, fake people, liars, bad drivers.

FAVORITE KRISTIN SHOW/CHARACTER: Portia in Fraiser.

BIO: Millie resides in the state of Minnesota where she currently lives in Apt. 201 just down the road from the College of St. Catherine where she is majoring in theatre. You can also see her strolling the streets of Manhattan a few times a year. She spends plenty of time on stage (previous productions include: The Music Man, The Dining Room, Wizard of Oz, State Fair, Christmas Carol, Our Town) but also works at a local theater in the Twin Cities area. Most of Millie's free time is spent doing homework and drinking at the local Irish pub. She also enjoys watching Girls Next Door on the E! channel. Her other free time, when she has it, is taking rock star weekend trips to New York, Vegas, Charlotte or Florida. She is famous for sleeping the day away, getting her heels caught in subway grates and making a stellar performance in any role she is cast in.

POSITION:  Head Moderator.

NAME: David

A.K.A. Luckydave14, Dave, LuckyDave, Aly's betrothed (not literally), the only staff member with a Y chromosome.

LIKES: Broadway, acting, singing, friends, family, fundraising, watching tv and movies, his laptop and his puppy, Madison.

DISLIKES: the telephone, people who talk to much, spinach, higher education, mornings, his incredible brain capacity.

FAVORITE KRISTIN SHOW/CHARACTER: Ella/Passionella in THE APPLE TREE.

BIO: David was regrettably born in New Jersey, but only had to spend a few hours there before going back to his hometown of New York. He is widely known as the sole and single male of the glitter staff. He spends his days fending off estrogen and protesting the use of both the color pink, and excessive amounts of glitter. When he is not cracking the whip over on the Broadway board, he is busy planning his upcoming nuptials with Aly. Neither is quite sure how the engagement came about, or why they are going through with it, but there is suspicion among the ranks that Dave was just trying to get in good with the boss lady, so as to be given a higher-profile position. For shame, Dave. For shame. When not dealing with Aly, Dave is running his organization, The Elephant Project. He promises that no animals have been harmed in the making of the project. Dave won first place at the 2007 NY DECA States Competition for the Community Service Project, but failed to place in the top 10. He will never figure out that dilemma.

POSITION: Moderator.

NAME: Morgan

A.K.A. Perfectlypink3, the blond, the only one who can't get into the bar.

LIKES: Music (country...don't hate 'cuz I'll two step all over y'all), shopping, snowboarding, running, and sleeping. And chocolate. And car rides to Connecticut...

DISLIKES: Being in Time Sq. when in a hurry, being broke, being asked if I am Paris Hilton. And Mushrooms. And car rides from Connecticut...

FAVORITE KRISTIN SHOW/CHARACTER: The Apple Tree/Princess Barbara. It's the whip. Sorry folks...gets me every time.

BIO: Morgan was born in a blueberry field in Maine, in a house with no heat and running water, a dirt floor, and an outhouse. She had to walk ten miles to school up hill both ways, and when she got there, had one piece of chalk and a piece of slate to write on. She then drove all the way to New York on a tractor, a la Beverly Hillbillies. Slightly more sophisticated, she is now a student at Manhattan College, studying Broadcasting and Journalism because, well, just like lawyers, the world needs more reporters. In all truth, she too has dreams of gracing the worlds great stages with her guitar in hand, but lacks the kahoonas to do so. You can most often find her in her apartment slapping her roommates into line, or wandering the streets asking for money. She does, however, make a very well dressed bum.
