Anne Kemp has lived in Los Angeles for twelve years. Originally from Frederick, Maryland, Anne moved in 1998 pursuing an acting career (see: waitress). From here she was introduced to the world of celebrity personal assisting. Her clients ranged from musicians to high profile media personalities.
Kemp writes the column “Anne In Progress” for the Frederick News-Post, a newspaper in DC-Metro area. She also has a blog “Life My Way” and writes for several websites, like Powder Room Graffiti.
Earning the nicknames “Late Bloomer” and “Fair-Weathered Romantic”, Anne is known best for her opinion and view of life. Her original sense of straight-up-humor that she uses in her columns earned “Anne In Progress” a Bloggers Choice Nomination for Best Humor Blog in 2010. Not one to mince words, she will share a recipe with you that she pried from her dead Grandmother’s hands or dole out the advice you didn’t know you needed about that date you had last night.
Soaking in life’s daily lessons, Anne is proud that she is in a proverbial state of progress. To her that’s life’s sweetest reward.

Hah great write up. I am a huge fan of Los Angeles. I live in Raleigh and hate it. Celebrity personal assisting is not what I am after either (imagine assisting someone who later became your co-star) but who knows what a person will do while they follow their dreams. Certainly beats waiting tables! I love your humour, it’s spot on!
Thank you so much Jennifer! I’m so glad you “get” me
I told my friend in Frederick about your writing and she went to your website. This is the jewelry artist, Carol W. Meyers, She goes to shows and workshops all over the place and works in many mediums.
