Megan Volpert is a staff writer for PopMatters and the monthly food columnist for Atlanta INtown. She enjoys reviewing and spinning a long-form essay, plus occasional interviewing.
 
Her primary areas of interest are non-fiction books, rock music and innovative food science. Volpert has forgotten more things about Andy Warhol, Tom Petty and Lewis Carroll than most people will ever know in the first place.
 
She used to be good at video games, and she still loves to go to the movie theater. If you want her opinion, she's happy to give it--and sometimes she gives it regardless.
