John Robertson

In launching the Bellevue Brewing Company—and pledging to use organic ingredients and support local youth charities—he’s giving the Eastside the craft beer outpost it deserves.

Carrie Brownstein

We’ll forgive the Washington native for crossing the border to create a comedy show. Portlandia’s second season gives us more reasons to laugh at Oregon. (Premieres Jan 6)

Dorli Rainey

She became the face of the Occupy protests when cops doused her with pepper spray, but the onetime mayoral candidate has been a local firebrand for decades.

Joshua Bell

Not to underplay his dynamic violin performances, but this virtuoso has the best head of hair in the business—call him classical music’s own Bieber. (Benaroya Hall, Jan 10)

Susan Enfield

Will the interim superintendent of Seattle Public Schools shed her temp status when the January deadline arrives? Recent test score bumps should help her case.

Charlie Mandigo

Once the top FBI agent in town, he’s now in favor of legalizing marijuana with Initiative 502. We’ll make no assumptions about his retirement pastimes.

Thanks for reading!
