.. THE FITZSIMMONS

Henry Fitzsimmons (J.K. Simmons) — 62, chef/restaurateur and owner of Horizon Bar and Grill Dr. Luanne Fitzsimmons (Jodie Foster) — 59, clinical psychologist Alicia Fitzsimmons (Natalie Dormer) — 33, deputy chief of staff for Rep.

The Fitzsimmons lived in Philadelphia originally and Henry's side of the family comes entirely from Pennsylvania.

While searching for a place to open up a restaurant, the Jersey shore and specifically Asbury Park boardwalk was in need of reinvigorating, so Henry chose there to open his restaurant instead of in Philly.

Luanne used to be a marathon runner and has participated in the Boston Marathon.

Isaac graduated from film school at NYU Tisch, where Sam's ex also studied drama.

Alicia is mildly colorblind.

Henry and Luanne met at a bar in Philadelphia when they were 23 and 26, they hit it off after they discovered they'd both attended the same terrible scam musical.

Henry is a boat craftsman as a hobby and has built several fully functioning boats.

Sam was a contestant on Chopped when he was 21, he was the judges' favorite to win but producers arranged the runner up to win because his backstory was more emotional. He's still salty about it.

TASK 01: FAMILY

"Happiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city." — George Burns

For the first Asbury Park task, we want to know what your character's family is like! Do they have a big family or a small one? Is it a found family instead of a biological one? What defines 'family' for your character?

You can complete this task any way you wish, with a traditional family members photoset, a moodboard, gifs, a family tree, or if you’re not inclined to editing images, you can write about your character’s family and include various headcanons, so on and so forth. You could do both. You could even make a playlist. We are not limiting you to any one way of elaborating on your character’s family! 

This task is not time sensitive and has no deadline. Any character new or old is welcome to do this task. Be sure to tag your final post with #asburytask or #asburytask01 (or both) so that others may see! 

Have fun!
