SAMANTHA EVERETTE /
Hampton Williams Hofer graduated from the University of Virginia and has an MFA from New York University’s Writer’s Workshop in Paris, France. She lives in Raleigh where she writes and raises babies. “I was thrilled to learn and write about the NCMA’s timely acquisition of Corrugated, a masterpiece that should make everyone want to mask up and head to Blue Ridge Road. Simone Leigh is a force, and Raleigh is fortunate to have her fingerprints here.”
P HOTOGR A PH ER Samantha Everette is a portrait photographer and Durham native. She graduated Summa Cum Laude from N.C. State University with a Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Design. Samantha spent a decade in New York City as a footwear designer and has since returned home to explore her passion for photography. “Photographing Rissi Palmer was a dream. I owe her many thanks for braving the 27 degree weather so that we could exploit the early morning light!”
COLONY LITTLE /
S.P. MURRAY /
W R I TE R Colony Little is a Raleigh-based writer and founder of the blog Culture Shock Art. She is a 2020 recipient of the Andy Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant, which supports contemporary arts writing and criticism. Little is also a music lover, which is why it was a special honor for her to profile artist Caitlin Cary. “It’s always a pleasure to speak with artists about their work, and it was especially thrilling to learn about Caitlin’s musical career. And as someone who understands career pivots (I worked in the financial services industry before becoming an arts writer), I appreciated Caitlin’s honesty in sharing the trials and triumphs of embarking on a new career path.”
P HOTOGR A PH ER S.P. Murray, a national awardwinning photographer who has covered everything from Olympic athletes to Rockettes, had the pleasure of photographing the cover story for this month’s issue, artist Caitlin Cary. “Caitlin is amazingly talented in so many ways; she’s an accomplished vocalist, a songwriter, as well as an artist. Plus, she and her husband have three beautiful rescue dogs and two of them, Cherry and Gracie, joined us for the photo shoot and added to the fun!”
