Episode 23 — Anna Jane Grossman

Anna Jane Grossman and Obsolete on Hey Brooklyn
Anna Jane Grossman is a freelance writer, journalist, and author of two books including the recently published Obsolete: An Encyclopedia of Once-Common Things Passing Us By.

We discussed her career, advice for people who are wondering how to be writers “when they grow up”, and waxed nostalgic about all the stuff from our childhoods that are becoming obsolete, many of which have been immortalized in her book.

We also discuss body hair and $10 bikini waxes.

You can see her fun tumblr account focusing on obsolete items at ObsoleteTheBook.com, find links to her other writings on AnnaJane.net and follow her on twitter: @AnnaJane.

Come by her Brooklyn book signing Monday, September 21 at 7pm, which will be held at Book Court, 163 Court Street.
