Henry is a native New Yorker but also lived a good portion of his youth in Jackson, Mississippi. He has master degrees in everything from Computer Science to International Relations; thus, we are trying to find out why he is still a Buffalo Bills fan.  As a child of the 80s he absolutely loves Teen Angst and Sci-Fi, requiring just the right balance of sarcasm and cheese to ‘rot your mind’.  Not shy about his love of movies, Henry states:

“I think that movies’ primary goals should be to entertain; if they fail to accomplish this then no one will care what else they are trying to say . . . If you can’t make fun and laugh at a really bad ‘B’ movie (think Howling 7) while at the same time have the ability to appreciate quality acting in a movie like Crash then you clearly don’t go to the movies every week like me.”
