In 2013, my late husband Roger and I launched RogerEbert.com as a stand-alone site separate from our previous partner since 2002, the Chicago Sun-Times. As you know, Roger passed away April 4, 2013, and I made the decision to continue the movie review site in his name. Since Roger's name is synonymous with quality film criticism, I have endeavored to continue to nurture the site, and it is said it has grown and expanded to be one of the most essential critical institutions in the world.
At a time when we see more communications, both digital and print, going out of business, we have decided to experiment in various ways. Soon you will see a renovated site design to make it even more user friendly. Today, I want to announce expanded positions for three of our regular writers. So please help me welcome Clint Worthington as an Assistant Editor, Peyton Robinson as a Weekly Critic, and Marya E. Gates as a Social Media Manager.
We are honored to have their talents on our team. Please find their bios below along with a link to read their work. And continue to drop in daily at Rogerebert.com to see what else is in store. Thank you. Chaz Ebert

WEEKLY CRITIC: PEYTON ROBINSON
Peyton Robinson is a freelance film writer based in Chicago, IL. Her interest in film began in fourth grade when her older brother showed her "A Nightmare on Elm Street" and kickstarted a fascination with horror. Since then, her taste has expanded, and her favorite films are not only the scary ones, but any genre-bending personal narratives that examine identity, relationships, and the human condition.
