About Laura J. Bagby

Laura J. Bagby

Laura has been intrigued with Hollywood ever since she was a child, and movies truly captured her imagination. She dreamed of one day heading out to Tinseltown and starring in a major motion picture. But if stardom didn’t come quickly, she didn’t relish the idea of waiting on tables year after year. She had tried waitressing previously, but being left-handed has its distinct disadvantages when trying to set a table correctly! Plus, the whole “starving artist” idea lost its appeal.

But then, while a graduate student, Laura realized she didn’t have to completely give up her love for movies. As a journalist, she realized she could rub shoulders with the stars while making her mark as an author with a byline. Sounded good! So she earned a Master’s in Communication (Film/TV Studies) and a Master’s in Journalism.

 

Laura reels in the fun

Laura stays in the loop on new releases by attending film screenings as press. When not writing this blog, she periodically writes reviews for previewonline.org.

 

Laura has been privileged to travel to Los Angeles to attend several film junkets for major motion pictures like National Treasure 2, Kit Kittredge, Bedtime Stories, Beverly Hills Chihuahua, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Marley & Me, and The Day the Earth Stood Still.

You can also hear Laura review movies on Fridays on Positive Hit Radio The Current FM during Liz Lane’s “Heart of Praise” show.
