Born in St. Paul, Minnesota, Simone lives and works in Los Angeles. She
received her MFA from UC San Diego and is interested in in looking at an
American cultural territory colored by notions of identity, performance
and glamour. “I live in LA and I like it here. I like that the palm
trees were all planted at the same time. I like that Gloria Swanson
played herself in Sunset Boulevard. I like that she had it, and then she
lost it, and she didn’t know the difference. I like that she buried her
dead chimp in a satin lined casket. Making pictures in LA is good. It’s
like sifting through an old trunk filled with worn out fan letters and a
bright blonde lock of hair from 1953.” /via lenscratch.com/
