Hilary Pollack

Born on a beautiful spring day the same year that Metallica’s Master of Puppets was released, Hilary Pollack has written hundreds (and edited thousands) of incredibly interesting stories about cultural ephemera. She has tasted the terrible martinis at the Trump Tower bar, explored the nostalgic resonance of shoegaze, and interviewed countless founders, musicians, chefs, and other fascinating people. Since 2020, she has been curating reviews about cool brands and products as the editorial director for VICE‘s shopping content. For a more comprehensive overview of her work experience, please visit her LinkedIn.

She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Art Practice from University of California, Berkeley. Her photographs have been published in SPIN, Seventeen, STATE, and Land magazines.

Now based in Los Angeles, she enjoys live music with heavy synthesizers, vintage band shirts, Pilates, power clashing, and driving long distances to eat at hole-in-the-wall restaurants with cult followings.
