Welcome to this side of paradise, otherwise known as New York City. Getting past the “No Vacancy” sign outside isn’t always easy, but that’s where we come in. So come along for the ride and be the Guest of a Guest as we bring you the people, places, and parties of NYC; from the paved streets of Uptown, to the cobblestone roads of Downtown and everywhere in between.

| Rachelle Hruska: From the center of the country (Nebraska) to the center of the universe (NYC)…I had a rock collection that I polished everyday…this and playing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with the neighborhood boys was pretty much how I spent all of my free time from 1991-1993. |

Newsletter Editor
 |
| Sarah Mandato: Sarah is originally from San Francisco, but thinks she is a better New Yorker than Californian. Actually a lawyer, she’s spending her recent “transition” stage in search of emotional intelligence. When not helping G of a G launch their newsletter, she loves eating eggplant, trolling Bergdorfs and the Chelsea art galleries and searching for the perfect underground mixology bar drink. |

Event Manager
 |
| Sarah Kunst: Born in the middle-of-nowhere Blanchard, Mich. and raised in cornfields, Sarah Kunst majored in about four things before settling on advertising and joined the staff as an event manager in NYC. She’ll be the third Sarah on staff because everyone’s parents got unoriginal in the ‘80s. |

Fashion Correspondent
 |
| Carson Griffith: Armed with an International Bachelors of Business degree from The College of William & Mary, Carson has put it to good use (righttt) in the glamorous world of New York City fashion and PR. Here at Guestofaguest, she now spends her time writing about everything from parties to Prada. When she’s not emptying her bank account at Barney’s, this West Village resident enjoys boating, visiting her family in Boston, brushing up on her tennis game, and a well-made cocktail. |

Writers
 |
| Billy Gray: Billy grew up just outside New York City and is now happy to be in the middle of the action. He was a History & Literature major and still working on that whole “marketable skills” thing. In the meantime, he’s a movie addict who, when not at Film Forum or the Landmark Sunshine, is probably scarfing down pirogi at Veselka or sipping a beer at Lucy’s with his favorite octogenarian bartender. |

| Emily Hollander After three semesters bored to tears in Maryland, Emily came back to New York to attend NYU majoring in Media, Culture and Communication, whatever that means. When she isn’t waiting in line at a sample sale she can be found getting reprimanded by Whole Foods security for obviously eating her way through the prepared food section. |

Contributors
 |
| Ariel Moses: “A” is a bubbly brunette who’s somewhat of a devil-wearing-Prada in the making; but for now, spends her days in leggings working for a PR firm and throwing events all over Manhattan and the Hamptons. A graduate of Horace Mann and Barnard College, “A” is known for slowly developing narcolepsy, a terrible sense of direction, nightlife, philanthropy, writing, and of course- always clutching her Blackberry. |
|

 |
| Stephanie Wei: Stephanie is currently a freelance writer in NYC, golf connoisseur, Director of PR for Envirolution and an all around girl-about-town. She attended Yale University where she earned a degree in History and was captain of the Women’s Golf Team. For GofG, she writes about her adventures navigating NYC nightlife, travels and interest stories ranging from fashion to books. |

Photographers
 |
| JT White: With a Southern belle mother and a Manhattan-ite father, JT has see it all. Growing up in “East Egg” going to parties at the Gatsby’s house (the real-life one) and spending summers running around the Hamptons have prep’d him for anything and everything he’s seen on the job. |
|
|
 |
| Dylan Armajani: Finally came to the realization that parties are much more fun for shy, geeky boys when they don\’t actually have to come up with more than a few seconds of small talk and has been hiding behind his camera ever since. |
