Job Posting

Every morning I wake up to 7 or 8 emails with new job listings that match my criteria. My criteria are legal, music, entertainment...or any combination of the three. Somehow the following job got thrown into one of the NY Times emails. Keep in mind that if my checkbook actually balances in any given month, I treat myself to a celebratory steak dinner. Also, anyone wanna guess what "non-traditional support" means in the last sentence?
