DOMINIC UMILE

WRITER & EDITOR

My writing about comics art and graphic novels has appeared in the Los Angeles Times, Hyperallergic, the Chicago Reader, the Washington City Paper, and the Comics Journal. Before covering books, I was a contributing music critic and features writer at Orlando Weekly, the Brooklyn Rail, Miami New Times, New York Press, and lots more. For five years at Remix magazine, I wrote about new records and profiled artists and producers. I was a writer and freelance assistant editor for Chord magazine, a contributing editor at PopMatters, and a copywriter/editor at Scholastic, where I worked on educational resources and marketing campaigns for more than a decade. In 2005, I was a researcher for NPR music critic Tom Moon on his book 1,000 Recordings to Hear Before You Die, which you should totally read before you die. I live in Brooklyn, New York, where I manage SEO content and editorial projects for an e-commerce company.
