Christina Morgan's initiation into
the entertainment industry began 'swimming with sharks' at her
first film internship in New York City working for Scott Rudin,
one of Paramount Pictures' notorious producers. Known as one of
the only employees not to be fired on his staff, she recognized
early on that she was intended to succeed in media. After
clearing this low— yet, actually quite high— bar, Christina went
on to NBC, landing production jobs for both the Sydney and Salt
Lake City Olympic Games. Upon receiving her BA in Communications
from Penn State University, she returned to the Big Apple to
join the Sony Pictures buying team at McCann Erickson. There she
was deployed to media upfront parties to ensure that clients
were properly allocating their resources and constantly putting
her in rooms with celebrities and tasty hors d'oeuvres. Although
being schooled in the business of schmoozing proved worthwhile,
Christina's go-getter attitude soon prompted her to return to
graduate school at the University of Pennsylvania. There, she
earned a Masters degree in Intercultural Communications, as well
as the baseless air of superiority that comes with an Ivy League
diploma. Post Penn, Christina cleverly used her mind-numbing
sales job to pay for her relocation to Los Angeles (as she
desperately missed the job perks of meeting celebs). The tabloid
worthy events that she soon witnessed as a local in West
Hollywood gave her ammunition to start a personal blog…and not
before long, the sheer fun of commenting on starlets and fashion
trends led to a freelance writing career. Christina is currently
writing for Campus Circle Inc. and Relate Magazine, working
press junkets to interview actors, directors, fashion designers
and beauty novelists. A fan of country club sports, football,
and a huge MINI Cooper enthusiast, Christina's looking forward
to getting back to her roots: she recently joined UPBEAT
Entertainment News Syndicate, which is based out of her beloved
hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
