Armond Allen White (born 1953)[1][2] is an American film and music critic who writes for National Review and Out. He was previously the editor of CityArts (2011–2014), the lead film critic for the alternative weekly New York Press (1997–2011), and the arts editor and critic for The City Sun (1984–1996). Other publications that have carried his work include Film Comment, Variety, The Nation, The New York Times, Slate, Columbia Journalism Review, and First Things.
White is known for his provocative, idiosyncratic,[3] and often contrarian reviews, which have made him a controversial figure in film criticism.[4] As an African-American, gay, conservative film critic, he has been called a "minority three times over in his profession."[5]
