Adam Tschorn is a former small-town newspaper editor, game-show question-and-answer man, fashion scribe and cannabis culture writer. He grew up in the tiny Vermont town of Sandgate, earned his B.A. in philosophy from the University of Vermont and an M.A. in journalism from Northeastern University in Boston. All of these things have prepared him perfectly for going out into the world, looking at things, asking “why?” and then writing down the answers. From 2007 to 2025, he asked those questions — and got those answers — on behalf of the Los Angeles Times. He can currently be found on LinkedIn, adamtschorn.com and wherever burning questions need answering.
