My name is Emma Carey, and I'm a writer based in New York City.
I am currently a weekly Culture & Entertainment contributor at Esquire, and a freelance contributor at various publications including Them, Alt Press, Bustle, Delish, and more. I was previously a lifestyle writer at Bustle Magazine, and worked as a weekly contributor to Them's "New Music Friday" column.
I've written many viral features - including profiles of Phoebe Bridgers ahead of the 2021 Grammies and Jenny Slate surrounding her work on Marcel the Shell; Q&As with artists like Lucy Dacus and Snail Mail; and more. I also am not above unpacking the strange phenomena that was 2022's Pinochio Multiverse of Madness and the illustrious career of Nic Cage.
​
I've also been interviewed on NPR, SiriusXM, and more.
​
When I'm not working, you can find me writing and performing comedy around New York City. I'm currently seeking a full-time role in culture & entertainment reporting.
