Mira Okonkwo
Senior Reporter · The Atlantic
Long-form on consumer culture, especially food brands run by women. Replies fast to short, sharp pitches with one specific anecdote up top.
Twelve names
from the list.
Daniel Pace
Staff Writer · Wired
Climate technology, especially storage and grid. Ignores all decks. Wants a one-paragraph email with the chart already attached.
Sasha Vidal
Editor · The Cut
Personal essays from founders, especially those willing to write about money. Will not run anything that has been pitched elsewhere.
Henry Ammar
Contributor · Bon Appétit
Restaurants outside the obvious cities. Particularly fond of opening-week stories that come with a dinner invitation attached.
Pia Romero
Books Editor · WSJ
Debut nonfiction with a chart, a number, or a moral. Pre-sale data is the fastest way to her inbox.
Theo Marwick
Critic · Pitchfork
Indie label launches and small-room residency stories. Trust takes time — he wants to know the artist, not the press release.
Anya Vetrov
Senior Editor · Fast Company
Founder profiles with a B2B angle. Loves a "we tried this and it almost killed us" beat. Replies on Slack DM faster than email.
Cole Ramirez
Senior Reporter · NYT Style
Service stories with a counter-cultural twist. We have placed nine pieces with him; tone matters more than topic.
Ines Larsson
Editor-in-Chief · Garden & Gun
Southern hospitality, distilleries, design studios. Always wants the place — visit her in Charleston with a sample and a story.
Reza Khosrov
Editor · Esquire
Men's profiles, especially second-act founders. Replies if your subject can hold a 90-minute lunch interview without checking their phone.
Mira Hollis
Senior Editor · Eater
Restaurant openings with an immigrant family arc. Wants the menu, the family photo, and a phone call with the chef before booking a visit.
Aïssa Bayo
Editor · Domino
Interior design profiles, especially small studios outside New York. Wants final photography, lead time, and one quotable client.
