Staff Profile

Sammy Warshaw –– A & E Editor

Sammy Warshaw’s Inklings experience can be summed up in one statement: the guy has an enthusiasm for film review.

He admits that if he were to do one thing for the rest of his life, he’d just watch and watch movies.

It was his interest in critiquing films that first brought him down the English hallway and through the doors of room 2031. Unlike a lot of people coming into Inklings, Sammy knew exactly where he wanted to be on the staff.

“I wanted to be known as the film guy.” He said.

The senior has most definitely become the one and only Inklings film guy. Sammy has now reviewed a wide variety of films for the Staples newspaper, and has become Arts and Entertainment editor.

Sammy’s “rollercoaster” of a high school experience has hit it high point- he is loving his time as an upperclassman. He has enjoyed taking A.P. Language with Mrs. McNamee, and of course, working on Inklings.

As for his moment of glory? Working on a list of the top ten movies of the decade. Anyone can see that it takes a practiced hand at movie reviewing to determine the movies that defined the decade. It takes a real film guy.
