Bazelon is a staff writer at the New York Times Magazine, the Truman Capote Fellow for Creative Writing and Law at Yale Law School, and a former senior editor at Slate. Her ground-breaking investigative journalism (and knack for storytelling), coupled with her extensive legal knowledge, makes her one of the leading authorities on the shifting landscape of bullying in the cyber age: what constitutes bullying? What can parents, teachers, and educators do about it? What are the roles of personality traits, such as “grit,” character, and empathy, to overcome childhood trauma and find social success? Emily Bazleon’s 2010 Slate coverage of the suicide of Phoebe Prince, a Massachusetts high school student whose suicide was linked to bullying, was a finalist for the 2011 Online Journalism Award from the Gannett Foundation and the 2011 Michael Kelley Award for "the fearless pursuit and expression of truth." She has spoken to audiences from the Aspen Ideas Festival to the Texas Bar Association to TEDxWomen. She is a frequent guest on The Colbert Report. She has also appeared on Today, PBS Newshour, Morning Joe, Fresh Air, and All Things Considered. Bazelon does live shows around the country as a member of the Slate Political Gabfest, and she also recently interviewed Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg at Yale. Her writing has appeared in The Atlantic, O: The Oprah Magazine, The Washington Post, and Mother Jones. Her book, Sticks and Stones: Defeating the Culture of Bullying and Rediscovering the Power of Character and Empathy, has won widespread acclaim since its release in 2013, and was featured on the cover of the New York Times Book Review.
