Greg CroakYou may have seen him rocking out on the bass in Lawrence Auditorium during assembly or eating breakfast in the Castle.  In our third entry of our “Get to Know…” series, we interview Greg Croak ’06 to learn about his reading interests and passion for music. We hope this series will continue to provide a peek into some of the incredibly vital members of our community.

What is your job at Nobles? I am the associate director of graduate affairs.

How long have you been at Nobles? I graduated in 2006 and joined the faculty in 2010. I’ve worked for the development office for 2.3 years.

Where did you grow up? Medfield, Mass.

What are some of your favorite books? You Shall Know Our Velocity! by Dave Eggers and A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.R. Martin

What was your favorite book as a teenager? The Giver by Lois Lowry

What is your favorite movie? Who Framed Roger Rabbit? and Emmet Otter’s Jug Band Christmas (My dog is named Emmet in tribute)

What is your favorite magazine or newspaper? The Boston Globe, The New Yorker, Bass Player

If you were on a deserted island, what three things would you like to have with you? 1.  Double chocolate Milanos 2.  A Guitar 3.  Bear Grylls… in that order

Do you read e-books? If yes, what do you like about them? I love e-books! I get the Globe delivered every day without wrangling/wasting paper, plus I read a lot more when I can carry everything around with me and get recommendations after I finish something.

Do you listen to audio books? If yes, what do you like about them? Do you have a favorite? My band and I listened to a lot of audio books when we toured in college. It’s all about who handles the narration. My two favorites are Get In The Van by Henry Rollins (frontman for 80s punk rock band Black Flag) and The Golden Compass by Phillip Pullman. Why? Because, honestly, don’t try to pretend that you know how to pronounce words like, Iorek Byrnison, panserbjørne or alethiometer. Such a task should really be left to the Brits.  Although, if we’re really going to keep it real here, the greatest audio book ever made is the Robin Williams narrated, Ry Cooder scored, Tim Raglin illustrated, Brian Gleeson written Pecos Bill.  Click here for a peek of Pecos Bill.

Thanks for your awesome and hilarious answers, Greg! Happy Reading, Ms.
