I'm Rebecca Lando.
I'm an award-winning writer, producer, and editor and upcoming cookbook author based in New York City.

In 2009 I launched Working Class Foodies, a cooking show that creates affordable meals from local, seasonal, and/or sustainable ingredients. Working Class Foodies is a part of YouTube Next Chef and airs on NBC New York's Nonstop Foodies.

I wrote, produced, and edited FilmFan, an award-winning weekly movie review show, for MSN from 2010-2011.

I’ve been banking with Chase since 2004 - when it was still WaMu. In those 6 years, my savings interest rate has slowly decreased from its starting high of 2.1%. 
I’ve been a loyal customer to Chase/Wamu for over 6 years. For the past 2 months, my interest rate has bottomed out to .01%. I called them to see what they could do for me. The answer: nothing.
So I’m transferring my savings to a ridiculously better AmEx Savings Account. All but the bare minimum I have to maintain to keep free checking at Chase. File this under: things I should have done a lot sooner.

5/15: The National are playing BAM, and we’re filming it. 
From Brooklyn Vegan:


The show will be a benefit, like Dark Was the Night, for the Red Hot Organization. A live webcast of the concert will be streamed from the Brooklyn Academy of Music on YouTube. The webcast will be directed by documentary filmmakeer D.A. Pennebaker and Chris Hegedus and it’ll be the first live (like, actual live, as it happens) concert video directed by the husband and wife. Before the concert they’ll show one of their short films. The show is being presented by ZYNC from American Express.

(I know this sort of contradicts my last post, but I did say I was still helping out on a couple of projects, and this is one of them.)
