Dan's
Papers
Covering the Home Design Industry
"The
only thing I have ever successfully made in the kitchen
is a mess—and several little fires”
—CARRIE
BRADSHAW
SEX AND THE CITY  Well,
Bradshaw may have said this but fortunately there are
millions of others who are seeking informative editorial
about kitchen design and décor. This past summer
I had the opportunity to write a few articles about this
industry for Dan’s Papers. Dan’s is the largest
weekly community newspaper in the Hamptons, with almost
50 years of consistent publication and a unique editorial
covering New York City to Montauk. Since 1960,
Dan's has been perceived as the bible on what to do and
where to go. Starting in the spring of 2008 I began writing
for the Home/Design section. My work within this industry
as a PR and marketing professional had enabled me to
establish a wealth of valuable contacts and expertise
in this area – providing some great sources for
research and quotes.
One
of my PR clients participated in the 2007 Hampton Designer
Showhouse and after spending
many hours at the Showhouse that summer I was hooked.
In 2008 I was back; this time as a journalist. I had
the opportunity to interview some of the best and the
brightest in the business for Dan’s (September
19 issue). From kitchen antiques to bathroom fixtures,
I look forward to continuing
to cover this perpetually fascinating industry.
