The founder of this event is Tom Kirlin, who we chatted to for our latest “A Day in the Life” series.

BIO

Tom Kirlin, 37, left his movie career as a Hollywood cameraman to start Pancakes & Booze in 2009. Born in Tucson, Ariz., he’s a travel fiend who has visited over fifty countries across every continent but Antarctica. At 6-foot-6, he’s a hell of a ringer in pick-up basketball games.
