After graduating from Wesleyan University, I worked for Planned Parenthood, but they fired me after just one week because I am an extremely poor typist. Almost immediately thereafter, I was hired at New York magazine. As a typist. I kept typing there for twelve years. In 2008, I became a staff writer at The New Yorker.
My book,
Female Chauvinist Pigs, is out in paperback and has been translated into Dutch, French, Italian, and Norwegian. Lately I've been going to a lot of universities to talk about
FCP, and I've also appeared on
The Colbert Report (click to watch), Oprah, and NPR's
Fresh Air. There's a piece I wrote in the anthology The Best American Essays of 2008, and I also have an article in New York Stories: Landmark Writing from Four Decades of New York Magazine.
