Hasta La Ideas

If you’re in the mood for a meaningless power list, Variety has just the thing. Its “New Power of New York” features “a new league of movers and shakers upending the entertainment business in Manhattan and beyond… digitally savvy, entrepreneurial, and unafraid to ruffle feathers.” Sure!
