District Attorney Ali Gitlow has served at the 69th precinct of the Port Authority for the past 47 years. She has seen it all, and is not impressed. She thinks art books are a waste of money, but sometimes enjoys a good beach read. In her spare time, she cultivates her true love of camping in the great outdoors with her many children and pets. In 1994, she appeared as an extra on the television show NYU: SVU.

Nick Shea is a disgruntled legal clerk interning at the law offices of Greenberg, Blueberg & Flergberg. Beyond a somewhat patchy comprehension of the law, he has a keen interest in graphic design, and remains hopeful that he will be chosen to create the firm’s 2024
nondenominational office holiday card.
