Pour Us Another One

Freshman year our favorite photography professor told us about this chick Sarah Stolfa who took pictures of the patrons of McGlinchey's Pub (just east of Rittenhouse) and subsequently won a New York Times photography contest. We forgot about the Drexel grad/Yale MFA's work (entitled "The Regulars") until our beloved New York Magazine name-dropped it in this week's Approval Matrix, dubbing the "intoxicating photos of Philadelphia's barflies" highbrow brilliant. We agree, and we're excited to see Stolfa's book of the project (with an intro by Jonathan Franzen!) when it comes out next week. If only she'd do a follow-up series, "The Regulars: Smokes Edition"
