Who
We Are
VICKERY
ECKHOFF writes advertising, articles, Web content, marketing
communications copy--and screenplays, when she has a moment. She
is an excellent writer and editor, though she's also been an account
executive and an art director, so she is both visually and strategically
oriented, as well as inventive. Vickery has an MBA from New York
University and a resume that includes such industry leaders as American
Express, Ogilvy and Mather, Forbes Magazine, and Esquire, among
others.
Vickery has written about everything from motorcycles to software.
Her chameleon-like writing mirrors a keen ability to get inside
the heads of readers, viewers and clients. Her more noted projects
have included an anti-fur campaign that made both the Art Director's
annual and the CBS Evening News, a Playgirl article on dreaming
about celebrities, and a live comedy written for CourtTV. Vickery
is based in New York City.
Areas of expertise: automotive, beauty/fashion, business/finance,
celebrities/entertainment, food/beverages, healthcare/pharmaceuticals,
humor, lifestyle, media/publishing, nonprofit, packaged goods, technology
and travel.
Influences: Allen Sherman, Bugs Bunny, Get Smart, Mad Magazine,
Mad Libs, The Bible, the Smothers Brothers.

SALLY ECKHOFF's rhythmic and adventurous prose style, with
its liberal doses of optimistic humor, has earned her column inches
in major publications all over the country. A former crack ace typesetter
in the 1980s, she parlayed a typositor job at the Village Voice
into a busy writing gig that included book reviews, music criticism,
and essays on feminism, sailors, ham and TV.
Described by a New York art critic as "serious be-bop", her work
is emotionally direct, poetically astute, and always up for a night
of cultural sacred cow-tipping.
Sally likes to travel to gather information, and will go anywhere:
She's climbed onto mules, dogsleds, fox-hunting horses and schooners
to get her story. You can find Sally's literary reviews in Newsday,
Bookforum, the Wall Street Journal, Rural Heritage Magazine, the
New York Times and Salon.com. Sally is currently at work on the
nonfiction book "Hooves: Working Animals in the 21st Century." Sally
is represented by the Malaga Baldi Literary Agency. She moved from
the East Village to the Hudson Valley where she paints, trains horses
as a hobby, and continues her journalistic explorations of the natural
(and unnatural) world.
Areas of Expertise: Non-academic literary criticism, typography,
third-wave fusion painting, working animal history.
Influences: Mad Magazine, Claude Debussy, Redmond O'Hanlon, Henri
Rousseau, J.P. Donleavy, Pete Winslow, Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks.
