FIT's Hue Live is a series of intimate conversations featuring the people and stories that define FIT. Starting in spring 2020, when connecting the FIT community around common interests and pursuits is more important than ever, Hue's managing editor, Alex Joseph, will speak with some of FIT's most talented and influential alumni across a range of industries. Hue Live is hosted by Alex Joseph, MA Fashion and Textile Studies '15, managing editor of Hue, the FIT magazine. He has been interviewing and writing about alumni and other industry luminaries for the college for 20 years.

In the first-ever Hue Live event, Josh Bennett will discuss his career with Hue Managine Editor Alex Joseph.
