Okay, Hoot admits it — we’re Boy (Meets World) crazy. Did you know that Rider Strong, who played Shawn Hunter on the hit ’90s sitcom, attended Columbia College? In 2004, he graduated magna cum laude in English, in fact. Amazing. No wonder he’s our Winter 2010/2011 | Bicoastal issue cover star, eh?
Today, I flew over to Los Angeles to style (along with my lovely assistant, Elaine Low) and interview the actor, director, and writer. The photographer was his brother, Shiloh Strong, who also acts, directs, and writes. Our make-up artist, Christa McCarthy, and hairstylist, Mandi Aparicio, were great company and offered Elaine and me some beauty tips in-between the shots.
I managed to contain my Mr. Feeny jokes, but I couldn’t help but ask Rider about Shawn Hunter’s illustrious hair. Oh, and about his favorite books in Lit Hum. Curious? Stay tuned for the issue in January!
