Hannah Cook
Hannah was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, and recently graduated Ohio University among the rolling hills of Appalachia. She majored in magazine journalism and a specialization in anthropology. During her time at OU, she was the Editorial Director of ACRN, their student-run radio station. She’s done many album reviews, live reviews and show previews, and has interviewed anyone from the Athens’ locals to Jeremiah Edmond of Favorite Gentlemen, to Erica Wennerstrom of Heartless Bastards. Hannah also has spent time as an intern at CityBeat, Cincinnati’s premier culture and nightlife newspaper. Currently, she is living and working in Macon, Georgia where she is not quite acclimated with Southern culture but is having a wonderful time. In May, she will be moving to New Zealand to begin an internship with the country’s agricultural media hub.
