Bio
Niklos Salontay
I worked with Alec at Ed and at Backdrop and have always enjoyed working with him immensely. He has a great sense of humor, which is reflected in his writing, and his memory is astounding. Even though we no longer work together regularly, I often turn to him when I'm itching for someone to discuss television with. In that realm he is the only critic I trust.
