CONTRIBUTOR PROFILE

Josh Ralske

Josh Ralske grew up on Long Island and currently lives in New York City. His parents were both creative people and encouraged him to appreciate the arts. Instead, he became a film critic. Josh studied film at Bard College and Fordham University. He has written on film, television, and theater for The New York Resident, Muze, All Movie Guide, and other outlets, and is a longstanding member of the Online Film Critics Society. He once co-wrote a screenplay for a mockumentary seen by thousands of Red Sox fans, and he co-produced a documentary series about happiness, of all things, for Rhode Island PBS. He has also programmed and curated several film series in New York and various backwaters. In his spare time, Josh enjoys watching movies that he doesn't have to write about.
