William Gee is a journalist and second-year student at Columbia University, pursuing a B.A. degree in English Literature & French. 

Fascinated by the convergence of seemingly disparate disciplines, such as literature, art, languages, and politics, I have explored these interests by writing articles incorporating travel, culture, and art for Harper’s Bazaar and Town and Country Magazines, as well as investigating the socio-cultural undercurrents of trends in travel, lifestyle, fashion, and broader culture in my own online magazine, ‘Outrospective’. I have carried these interests with me to Columbia University, where I am a Staff Writer for the Arts & Entertainment section of the Columbia Spectator.

Applying these perspectives to the world of art, I created the ‘Outrospective Exhibition’ in September 2020, where I displayed 38 of my original photographs, influenced by the contemplative cultural ideas previously investigated in ‘Outrospective’, and sold in aid of the St Paul’s School Bursary Fund.
