After writing about fashion and style for the New York Observer, Lexy Zissu moved to San Francisco to freelance write (for Vogue, Organic Style, Health, and Bon Appetit, among others). She quickly returned to New York to write and edit at Details magazine, then Lifetime magazine, and most recently at T: The New York Times Style Magazine. Lexy's organic daughter, Aili, popped up on a positive pregnancy test right around when "The Complete Organic Pregnancy" was sold. She was born in February 2006.

City life doesn't mean a lack of organic produce; Lexy has been a member of a local CSA (community supported agriculture) for the past 6 years.
