EUROPEAN WATCH CO. A GALLERY OF FINE WATCHES Sue Brady Radio personality Sue Brady was the "mom-wife" on Mix 104.1 FM (CBS Radio) for 10 years with Gregg Daniels and Fast Freddy. She resides in Wellesley with her family and is involved with many Boston charities. In this issue: Brady talks about "weaning in" for Parting Shot. What's your favorite charity-related memory? "Giving money through the Ellie Fund to a single mom going through chemo whose roof caved in during a snowstorm." Did the Boston Marathon have special meaning for you this year? "Knowing all three men from Stoneham who lost their legs is one of the reasons I wanted to show the resilience of our fabulous city." Gretchen Voss Gretchen Voss is a freelance writer who lives outside of Boston. She is a contributing editor to Women's Health magazine, and her work has appeared in magazines such as Marie Claire, Town & Country, Glamour, and Redbook. In this issue: Voss interviews Orange is the New Black star and Boston native Taylor Schilling for our cover story. What struck you most about Schilling? "She is extraordinarily sweet yet swears like a truck driver— but then she corrects herself." Why do you think people find her TV character so appealing? "I really love the fact that Piper is driving her own story instead of just being the passive love interest or sidekick for a male protagonist." Mitch Weiss Boston-based Mitch Weiss is a fine art and commercial photographer. He serves as creative director for Humble Hues, an art and design consultancy servicing nonprofits. In this issue: Weiss photographed our Women of Inf luence roundtable feature. How do you get people to feel comfortable in front of the camera? "Portraiture is teamwork, and respecting human dignity is my priority. When the sitters are comfortable, they share a range of genuine emotions and enjoy the experience." You've already published one book. Are you planning a second? "My first book, Dogs in Thought, was produced to benefit the MSPCA- Angell and Animal Rescue League of Boston. Future philanthropic art books and studio projects are in the works." 026-027_BC_FOB_Contribs_LteSpring14.indd 27 4/7/14 11:08 AM
