Luke K. Schreiber is a high school senior from Hoboken, N.J. He graduates this coming week, and will attend Princeton University in the fall.
Luke made his New York Times debut last December, a Monday puzzle with the theme IT'S ME AGAIN. His high school, Saint Peter's Prep, announced the feat at an assembly. "It was fun seeing people compete for the fastest time," he says.

Zachary Schiff is a writer living in New York City. This is his first crossword for The Times.
The theme was initially planned for a 15x15 weekday puzzle, but it didn't quite pan out — through "trial and error and a little bit of luck," he was able to rework it into a Sunday. His favorite clue is 89-Down, a fact he heard a few years back and stored away in the hopes of one day including in a puzzle.

Michael Schlossberg is an internist in Bend, Ore. This is his third Sunday crossword of the year.
Michael's antenna is always up for theme ideas — he struck upon this one after seeing the phrase at 113-Across in a news article. Though Michael is an avid gardener, he never brainstorms themes there. "It's my happy place," he says.

Ginny Too, of Philadelphia, Pa., is a V.P. of customer retention at Comcast. She first started solving crosswords on the Appalachian Trail, sharing clues from a desk calendar with her hiking buddies. She has since completed the Pacific Crest Trail (Mexico to Canada), and Continental Divide Trail (Canada to Mexico), always with the Times crossword as a companion.
This puzzle was inspired by her father, whose love of silly puns spans English, Mandarin, and Taiwanese.
