LINDSY VAN GELDER

I'm currently based in the beautiful city of San Diego, a two hour drive from Los Angeles, 18 miles from the Mexican border, and a short flight from most other major West Coast locations. I've also lived in (and written about) New York, Chicago and Miami... From 1991 to 2009 I was chief writer at Allure. Before that, I was a contributing writer for a decade to Ms. Magazine. I'm a fan of the full range from serious to fluffy, and I'm probably the only writer who has ever had simultaneous bylines in Town & Country and the National Star.
