Q&A with Stan
Q: If you could choose anyone famous (real or fictional) to have dinner with who would they be and why?
Emma Goldman, who was a rabble-raising American anarchist of the early 20th century. She comes across as such an interesting person in her autobiography - stubborn, joyful, beholden to nobody.
Q: As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
A gamekeeper, because I knew it involved animals and long walks in the rain.
Q: If a movie was made of your life what genre would it be, who would play you?
A musical dark comedy starring Matt Smith.
