Nona Willis Aronowitz |
- About Me:
- * nona willis aronowitz Nona Willis Aronowitz is a 25-year-old journalist and cultural critic and a born-and-bred New Yorker. She graduated from Wesleyan University in 2006, with a degree in American Studies and a concentration in Film. She wrote her undergraduate honors thesis on 1970s pornographic movies and their influence on and reflection of the sexual revolution and feminism—and got Wesleyan to pay for every single porn movie she watched. Nona has written about women, sex, music, technology, film, and youth culture for numerous publications including The Nation, The Village Voice, The New York Observer, Salon, Double X, and Bitch. She has worked for The Village Voice, Salon, Legal Momentum (formerly the NOW Legal Defense Fund), Tango Magazine, and as a photojournalism teacher for Step Up Women’s Network. She recently participated in an online think tank for the Institute for the Future of the Book (funded by the MacArthur Foundation) on Doris Lessing's The Golden Notebook. Nona lives in Chicago and is currently a reporter and editor for TribLocal.com. Her book, Girldrive: Criss-Crossing America, Redefining Feminism was released in November 2009. She is also working on an anthology of her mother Ellen Willis’s rock criticism, called Out of the Vinyl Deeps, slated for fall 2010.
