Who's Who Chicago: Centerstage People
Amanda Nyren

Amanda grew up in Lake Forest, went to college at Northwestern in Evanston, and now lives downtown in the Loop. She suspects that someone (probably her mom) is conspiring to keep her in Chicago.

In addition to writing for Centerstage, Amanda reviews and previews local concerts as Chicago Live Music Examiner. Please read her posts. She could really use the pennies.

Amanda would like to take this opportunity to deliver a message in the form of a haiku to all non-Chicago natives currently living in Chicago:

if I hear how much
Chicago winter sucks one
more time, I will scream.
