- An entertainment journalist for more than a quarter century, James Michael Kozak began his career in print, laboring as editor and film critic for Boxoffice Magazine before embarking on his long stint as editor-in-chief of the national motion picture monthly In Focus. A longtime contributor to pioneering entertainment news website Ain’t It Cool News, he was named its TV editor in 2000 and became a charter member of the Broadcast Television Journalists Association a decade later. He began regularly contributing film and television reviews to Southern California’s NewsTalk 1180 KERN-FM in 2012 and served as guest critic on PBS’ weekly television series “Just Seen It.” A graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, he is a member of the Television Critics Association and shares his Las Vegas home with his wife Ana and eight ravenous pets.
