Stephanie McNeal

I'm a journalist and published author who has spent a decade telling the stories women actually care about.

Currently, I'm a senior editor at Glamour, where my work spans the full breadth of women's culture — from cover stories and profiles of everyone from Bravo stars to abortion activists, to in-depth features on phenomena like "WAGS" and "soft girls," to unpacking our complicated cultural feelings about everything from Taylor Swift to motherhood.

Previously, I was a senior culture writer at BuzzFeed News, where I also founded the trending news team. I'm the author of Swipe Up For More! (2023). My 2020 BuzzFeed News feature on LuLaRoe was adapted into both a podcast I hosted and a Discovery+ documentary. I've also appeared in ABC's Born to be Viral and HBO's An Update On Our Family. Oh, and one time, I made Tom Sandoval really mad.

Besides my writing, I share culture commentary on Instagram, Threads, and Substack. I am represented by Leila Campoli at Calligraph Literary Agency.
