Eric Smith
Back in college, Eric was thrilled to discover the stylistic finesse of Harper’s and The New Yorker. Since then, he’s been mildly obsessed with matching the right words with ideas that matter. He admits to reading style and grammar books for fun, and he’ll diagram sentences if asked. An astute editor, Eric is prized for his ability to see the big picture and zero in on the details that put a project on target. And, he can shred it on the guitar.
