Jessica Derschowitz

Jessica Derschowitz is a writer and editor based in New York City, where she covers film, TV, theater, and all things pop culture. You can find her work in Marie Claire, Vanity Fair, Variety, Bustle, and many other outlets. She previously managed recommendations content at Tudum, which means her entire job was telling people what to watch on Netflix (and she took that responsibility very seriously). Prior to that, she was an editor at Entertainment Weekly for almost seven years, where she worked on everything from breaking news to TV recaps, awards coverage, digital cover stories, and special projects. She loves interviewing stars and behind-the-scenes creatives, nerding out on prestige dramas and superhero movies, and rewatching her favorite shows endlessly. She’s also a massive theater fan and loves attending (and writing about) plays and musicals—she once saw 97 in a single year. Jessica is a graduate of Syracuse University’s S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications, where she studied English and magazine journalism.
