Joined Atlas Obscura in 2024
I’ve worked as a senior editor at The Harvard Business Review and as a reporter for The MacNeil/Lehrer Newshour. My writing has appeared in The Atlantic, The New York Times Book Review, The Nation, Glamour, The Christian Science Monitor, and The Chicago Tribune.
My first book Lake Effect: Two Sisters and a Town’s Toxic Legacy, won high praise and a good deal of media attention. People Magazine called it: “A chilling indictment of how government and big business prized profits over health and a moving tale of one woman's struggle to understand why."
My new book, Women Behind the Wheel, will be published by Pegasus Books in 2024.
