Cinema Society Founder Andrew Saffir edited this year's annual power list of the East End's entertainment-industry elite. He organized fabulous events in the Hamptons all summer, including a screening of Crazy Sexy Cancer at Donna Karan's home, which we loved even though we got terribly lost driving home from the Northwest Woods. Now he's hosting great movie screenings in the big city and we are so there.

Editor-at-Large Debbie Bancroft is bracing herself for the hurricane of winter holiday events. The recent subject of a front page Times story, she always manages to have fun and look glamorous-usually dressed by her pal, Douglas Hannant. She loves supporting the Parrish Museum of Art all year round. XOXO

Restaurant critic Ben "BL" Leventhal is a tough customer to please. During the summer he prefers cooking at home to going out, but in this issue he makes a case for checking out local favorite Nick & Toni's during the off-season. Ben is also the editor of Eater.com and editorial director of Beach.curbed.com, a Hamptons blog. Up next: world domination.

Photo editor Stephanie McNiel shot almost everything in this issue. She also spent much of September shooting the glorious off-season for the next issue. Among her favorite recent assignments: getting lost in a corn maze at Pumpkin Town. She just left Morocco (where she wasn't fasting for Ramadan), and was last seen boarding a flight for Europe.

New Yorker Ryan McGinley's photographs ("Art Gets the Last Word") will be exhibited in a group show, "Now Playing: Artists Borrow From Film" at Glenn Horowitz Bookseller in East Hampton, Oct. 20 through Nov. 27. Other artists in the show include Andy Warhol, Cindy Sherman, and Richard Prince.

"Hostess with the Mostest" Jamee Gregory is still delivering dining dispatches. She's also been planning her daughter Samantha's October wedding. She's on the Womens' Board of the Boys' Club of New York and raises funds for Project READ, a literacy program that she started.
