Loren Feldman is an entertainer and videographer based in New York City. He comments on the tech industry on 1938media.com. He is president of 1938media, a video production agency. He has been called "the most controversial video blogger in social media today." [1] Before focusing exclusively on the internet, Loren worked as an actor and independent filmmaker in Los Angeles.[2] Loren is a member of the Screen Actors Guild and the New York Friars' Club.

Feldman was a featured video blogger at The Huffington Post and formerly at Podtech. He was prominently featured on Valleywag for his controversial TechNigga video. [3]. He has been a featured speaker at tech conferences, including speaking on the future of media at Mesh [4] and MobileMonday in NYC, where he was a panelist discussing business and investment opportunities in mobile video. [5] A Wired writer said, "In classic brass knuckles, New Yorker style, Podtech.net/1938 Media video blogger Loren Feldman may have posted the final, definitive word on the whole email versus telephone Interview debate."[6]

When Anna Nicole Smith died, the New York Times said about Feldman's video linking Smith and Marilyn Monroe, "[I]f anyone can pull off the just-gotta-do-it comparison, it’s Loren at 1938 Media."[7] Dan Farber, editor-in-chief of CNet says[8], "Loren Feldman of 1938 Media is bringing his lampooning brand of humor to Web 2.0 land. It's as if Lenny Bruce landed in 21st century Silicon Valley instead of at Carnegie Hall in 1961."
