The masthead
Contributors
The writers, photographers and columnists who make each issue of Aster Press — and the desks they write from.
Elsie Novak
Columnist, Kitchen & Garden
Elsie tends a kitchen garden and a sourdough starter with equal seriousness. Her column is about growing, cooking and eating whatever is in season.
Marcello Bianchi
Staff Photographer
Marcello photographs interiors, coastlines and hands at work. He carries one camera and waits for the light to come to him.
Theodora Hale
Culture Critic
Theodora reviews books, studios and small stubborn institutions. Her filing system is a pile, and she is at peace with it.
Amara Okafor
Travel Correspondent
Amara reports on slow travel from a hammock, a sleeper train or a harbour wall, whichever is closest. She has never once checked a bag on purpose.
Jonas Meyer
Food Writer
Jonas writes about food that does not try too hard. His columns favour one-pot meals, long lunches and the opinion that salad is a state of mind.
Clara Whitfield
Contributing Editor, Interiors
Clara has photographed and written about homes for fifteen years. She believes a room is finished when it looks as though someone has just stepped out of it.
