Hello hello all. It's Jillian here, of ![[info]](https://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
acejillian acclaim, star of many stages and screens. Best way to get into contact with me remains alinneaelindor at gmail.com for your plot needs an I continue to be fairly available on the regular after 7pm PST, once my girls have gone to bed.
But onto the reason that you'd even want to contact me. This is Benediktas Venclova, more commonly introduced as Benas and more likely called Ben -- he'll answer to all of it. He has been a photographer for the Daily Herald, freelance since his hire in 1950 and in the last year brought on as staff. Reporters like him because he's literally available 24-7 and he's got an instinctual mistrust of government. He's come over from Lithuania by way of Switzerland after the war, but he's loving the American life - he spends most of his evenings listening to Jazz and drinking the night away at the Two Belles, and the other ones at his typewriter or at his books, getting a firmer command of the written English language.
At any rate, you've probably run into him if:
* You're Jewish - Benas is at synagogue on Friday nights and Saturday mornings like clockwork, even if he's not especially kosher (because cheeseburgers).
* You like Jazz - Benas certainly does, at Two Belles and on street corners, really. Don't ask him if he knows any names, he can never remember that sort of thing.
* You work at the Daily Herald - obviously, so does Benas
* You have occasion to know his roommate and co-hort Lukasz -- the two of them are thick as thieves.
I'm excited to try out this new genre and look forward to interacting with you all!
