Connected as Cathryn Swan (432 friends)

I grew up in New Jersey and, as a huge Bruce Springsteen fan, I wrote a fanzine about him while in college called "The Aurora." This led me to the music business where I became a publicist for amazing artists like Patti Smith, Sarah McLachlan, Aretha Franklin, AC/DC, Enuff Znuff, and more.

My aromatherapy company, also named B-girl, was featured in many glossy magazines, including ELLE, IN Style, British ELLE and Latina.

For ten years, I've done grassroots activism in NYC on issues related to the environmental, anti-war, animals and wildlife.

I write a blog about Washington Square Park in Greenwich Village/public space in NYC as well as my own personal blog, Cathryn's World, chronicling the writing of my book and Kickstarter experience.

My goal is that my book will make a difference in an entirely new way.

I live in Brooklyn, NY.
