Brent Simon is a regular contributor to Screen International, New York Magazine’s Vulture and H Magazine, among other outlets. A proud graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Simon served for five-plus years as editor-in-chief and lead film critic of the now-defunct Entertainment Today, at the time Los Angeles’ oldest free weekly newspaper focused exclusively on entertainment.

Simon has also contributed film criticism, essays and feature pieces for print publications as diverse as Los Angeles Daily News, Paper, Los Angeles CityBeat, Zeitgeist, Now Playing Magazine and PopSmear, as well as, among others, IGN, Rotten Tomatoes, FilmStew and Reelz on “the Internets,” as former President George W. Bush would call it. He is currently president of the Los Angeles Film Critics Association.
