Hampton
Jitney Magazine
It
was the spring of 2004 and I was eager to write about
the great people and places on the East End. I had heard
about a new magazine, Hampton Jitney Magazine, which
was scheduled to launch that summer. I loved the idea
behind this venture: publish a great magazine and distribute
it on the ubiquitous Hampton Jitney so that people had
something new to read while sitting in traffic on the
LIE. I did some research and weeks later I was sitting
in Starbucks with the founder. We shook hands and a couple
of hours later I left as a Hampton Jitney Magazine contributor.
Unfortunately, like many publishing start-ups, the magazine
ceased publication after a couple of summers. However,
it provided me with a great opportunity to meet some
amazing people in the Hamptons. I met and interviewed
top restauranteurs, entrepreneurs, athletes, doctors
and authors. There is nothing like an interview on the
beach
to make deadlines that much more palpable…
