I am also passionate about art and culture. I have worked at galleries in Manhattan and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I have also worked for several art magazines as an editor and an art reviewer (http://i1.exhibit-e.com/markmoore/a65bc709.pdf). To improve my comic chops, I even took classes and performed at the Upright Citizens Brigade theater in New York.
