Mark Baren makes a living across drums and bags

In New York Ellie Grossman profiles Mark Baren, a High School of Music and Art and Juilliard alumni who left drumming for a menswear model and later launched Mr. Bags, a handbag line with bright metallics and urethane fabrics. He still plays and records at night, with Saks carrying the items and his idol Buddy Rich noted by his mother.
