Introducing Reginald Thornberry III


 

Reginald Thornberry III - Professional Destroyer of Dreams

Born into old money and older prejudices, Reginald Thornberry III has spent the last four decades systematically crushing the artistic aspirations of anyone foolish enough to put brush to canvas within his purview. A graduate of institutions so prestigious he refuses to name them (though rumors persist it was actually a community college in Nebraska), Thornberry has made a career out of wielding his Mont Blanc pen like a scalpel.

His legendary reviews have driven grown artists to tears, caused three gallery closures, and allegedly inspired one sculptor to take up accounting instead. Thornberry's personal art collection consists entirely of mirrors, which he claims are "the only honest art form—brutally revealing truth without pretense."

He resides in a minimalist penthouse where he practices his withering stare daily and maintains a wine cellar stocked exclusively with bottles costing more than most people's rent. His hobbies include crushing wildflowers, telling children that Santa isn't real, and writing scathing Yelp reviews of lemonade stands.

Thornberry's motto: "If it doesn't make someone cry, it's not criticism worth reading."

Currently working on his autobiography: "Everyone Else Is Wrong: A Life in Superior Taste."
