Kevin Raub is a Brazil-based travel and entertainment
journalist who grew up in Atlanta and started his career in
entertainment in New York, working for Men''s Journal and Rolling
Stone magazines and "freelancing" i.e. interviewing hot young
actresses about their sex lives over a few too many cocktails for
men''s magazines like FHM, Stuff and Maxim. He spent five years in
Los Angeles as the senior writer for allstarnews.com, CDNOW''s
now-defunct thank you, Amazon.com! groundbreaking online music
