| What people have said about being on the customer side of Jennifer Lorraine's jobs. I'm not sure how this goes but the first time I met Jennifer Lorraine: She was swamped and on the Rhino lunch shift. My friend said she painted and was interested in art and galleries. When Jen delivered the second round I told her I had a gallery and would she be interested in volunteering there. A huge smile spread across her face. She turned from frantic frenzy to awesome energy Jen. What a motivated assistant she was! Her and friend Kim sorted out my rats nest the first meeting, Jen was a stellar bartender for openings, and boy did she ever pound the streets of Yorkville promoting for Cynthia Chapman's show! A natural at networking. -Maggy Perry- "energetic, effervescent & she has a contagious enthusiasm about her!!" - Lara & Jo- "Jennifer, my seraphic waitress, an ethereal effulgence who was as punctilious as she was an aesthete.... and who would have been the lead in my film adaptation of Roget's Thesaurus, if I had only finished the script before she left the Rhino...
