lea boyd amy m. orozco
Carpinteria Magazine editor Amy M. Orozco considers herself one of the luckiest people in the world. She gets to live and work in Carpinteria. Orozco uncovers a lot of new territory in this issue — from ancient spirituality to today’s retail nirvana. Her work credits
include national magazines and newspapers, television animation, and travel writing. Her first guidebook “Solvang: A Guide to the Danish Capital of America” was released earlier this year.
Traveling by plane, train or bicycle is top of the list for Coastal view News editor Lea Boyd. This spring she undertook a vicarious bicycle journey while writing about Marty Panizzon and his great cross-country adventure of 50 years ago. She also got to explore John and Jane Howards’ garden paradise, research that felt like a tropical vacation just
a few blocks from the home she shares with her husband and their nutty, black dog.

Local music columnist Mark Brickley profiles Carpinteria’s legendary ska band The upbeat. Describing their Jamaican sound as a blend of pulsing beats, flaring horns and cool rhythms, Brickley parallels The upbeat’s tropical groove to Carpinteria’s friendly, laid-back, small town image. Singer-songwriter Brickley performed at the 2011 Rotary Talent show and his short story “Contest of Giants” appeared in last summer’s issue of Carpinteria Magazine.
Writer Peter Dugré has learned in his handful of years living in Carpinteria that avocados are well-suited for any meal, any time of the year — par- ticularly the creamy, oily variety that plumps up and hangs from the trees of a Carpinteria avocado grove. Dugré also hones in on two other locally grown specimens — artists Melinda- Trembley and Amber O’Neil--who were born and raised in Carpinteria and express their appreciation for the beauty in their backyards through art.
maureen foley
juli land-marx Art director Juli Land-Marx is the wizard who brings ideas and concepts to life on the pages of Carpinteria Magazine. With her mouse as a wand she captures the look and feel of our little coastal town and turns them into page-turning delight. She claims to play no favorites with stories and says each one is a unique inspiration. Perhaps her biggest design challenge is when her
toddler Landon runs off with the track ball to her mouse. Mouse intact, Juli is very proud of the current issue.
Maureen Foley is a writer, artist, and teacher who grew up on an avocado ranch in Carpinteria.

Her writing has appeared in the New York Times, Wired, Santa Barbara Magazine, Carpinteria Magazine, Caesura, Skanky Possum and elsewhere.
