Grace Shafer, Senior Staff Writer

Grace Shafer is a sophomore at Robinson and a senior staff writer for Knight Writers. This is her second year on staff.

Along with journalism, Shafer likes to spend her time reading and watching films. Some of her favorite authors at the moment are Joan Didion and Eve Babitz. At the moment, Sse enjoys films such as "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", "Night of the Hunter" and "20th century." Her favorite directors currently are Greta Gerwig, Wes Anderson, and David Lynch.

Even though Shafer describes herself to be a very high-maintenance person, she wishes to travel and backpack through all of Europe at some point in life because she believes it's a beautiful country and she has always loved it.

This year, Shafer is most looking forward to her English class because she gets along with her teacher and they might start a film class and a literary magazine, both being things Shafer enjoys and can't wait to be able to be a part of.

"I just love journalism and writing in general," Shafer said.

Looking into the future, Shafer's dream job ties almost directly into what she's going to be doing in her English class this year.

"My favorite thing ever and what I want to eventually pursue as a career is film," Shafer said.

Jonah Irwin (23) jumps to aim for the net. The Break the Silence game was inching closer to the end of the third quarter, which the Knights would finish 24-18, with Brandon taking the quarter. It was a good game... it was closer than it couldve been but besides that, Im glad everyone came, Irwin said.
