ellen Green<br />
Ellen was actually the one paying attention in<br />
English class, back at Oak Creek Senior High,<br />
when our publisher was reading Rolling Stone,<br />
hence her mad editing skills. After a successful<br />
career teaching German and French at a number<br />
of high schools in the Milwaukee school system,<br />
she gave in to the lure of sunny California and<br />
moved to San Diego. In addition to proofreading<br />
and copy editing for a few local publications, she<br />
has been tutoring English writing skills and ESL.<br />
Her taste in music is eclectic, bouncing<br />
between jazz, classic rock and plain old top-40<br />
radio. In her off hours, you can find her with a<br />
camera in hand, exploring off-the-beaten-path<br />
places in San Diego, discovering wines, or on<br />
a weekend getaway with her husband. And<br />
her annoying love of trivia got her a spot on<br />
Jeopardy!, winning a trip to Maui in the process.<br />
Ellen joins us as web editor, where she vows<br />
to clean up our act.<br />
Rob Johnson<br />
Rob’s audio journey began as a toddler. His<br />
parents made him a “human iPod Shuffle,” letting<br />
him change the records on their massive console<br />
stereo, firmly cementing his love for music and<br />
audio on his sixth birthday with a gift of a portable<br />
radio/cassette player. He claims they did not see<br />
him much until high school days after that, and<br />
then only tethered to a Walkman.<br />
The years that followed found Johnson<br />
working as a DJ for hire at weddings and private<br />
parties, as well as doing live recording at a local<br />
concert hall. Somewhere in the middle of all this,<br />
the audiophile bug took hold, continuing to the<br />
present day.<br />
After a successful career in the world of public<br />
relations, Johnson joins us as a contributing writer<br />
and our review coordinator.<br />
