About Carly

Carly Usdin grew up wanting to be either a filmmaker, a stand-up comedian, or an ice cream man. Now she works in television, so that’s… close. Carly writes, produces, and edits on-air promos and band interviews for Logo. In her spare time she writes about television for Autostraddle, DJs under the name DJ Carlytron, and is a huge nerd.

Carly dislikes coconut, chunky peanut butter, snakes, poor spelling and grammar, gladiator sandals, and disproportionate outfits. She enjoys ties, robots, casting specials, irrationally hating things, and lemonade. Her goal is to someday become a pop and lock dancer… oh, and to change the world of gay media.

“Everything great that we know has come from neurotics. Never will the world be aware of how much it owes to them, nor above all what they have suffered in order to bestow their gifts on it.” – Marcel Proust
