Professional fun-haver Melissa Meinzer is the editor of the Weekend newsletter. She’s been in newspapers or magazines in some form or another since the early aughts. A 2010 transplant from Pittsburgh, she’s been in St. Louis long enough to have long-lost favorite venues and restaurants, but not long enough to care where you went to high school. She lives with her husband and a lot of excellent cats in Tower Grove South.
