Emily Voigt
I am a writer based in New York City specializing in science and culture. My stories have appeared in the New York Times, Odyssey Magazine, Mother Jones Magazine, and Isotope: A Journal of Literary Science and Nature Writing, as well as on the programs Radiolab and This American Life, among others. My article "The Art is Alive!" was listed as a notable essay in The Best American Essays 2010 and featured in the "In Essence" section of The Wilson Quarterly. I am currently working on a book to be published by Scribner, a division of Simon & Schuster, about a legendary fish from Borneo.

I hold degrees in English literature and journalism from Columbia University where I was awarded a Pulitzer Traveling Fellowship. A member of the National Association of Science Writers, I was an NASW Travel Fellow in 2010. I particularly enjoy writing for young readers and love to speak to students at schools around New York.

I would be happy to hear from you at Emily.Voigt [at] gmail.com.
