About

Alyssa Giacobbe

Writer + Editor

I’ve been writing and editing for magazines since 1998, when I began my career as a features assistant at ELLE. I have since held staff positions at Harper’s Bazaar, Teen Vogue, Boston, and DuJour, and contributing editor posts at Lucky and Architectural Digest. As a journalist, I write about lifestyle, crime, and everything in between: I’ve gotten mani-pedis with reality stars, off-roaded through the Sahara, trailed drug traffickers and sex offenders, and been stood up by Molly Ringwald. I also write books—including That’s What Fashion Is, co-authored with Joe Zee—and create branded entertainment, like The Conversation Piece, an original digital magazine I produced for eBay on behalf of Architectural Digest and The Drop In, a video series I story-produced for WIRED and Dropbox. I live in Portland, Maine.
