Sally Koslow is a novelist, journalist and former editor-in-chief of both McCall’s and Lifetime Magazine, which she created for Hearst and Disney. The New York Times described her novel, Little Pink Slips, a satire of the magazine industry published in April 2007 as “higher up on the designer totem-pole than The Devil Wears Prada…what’s different and interesting…is that the main character is in a position of power and knows a lot about the magazine business…a smart gimlet-eyed professional…" The Wall Street Journal noted the novel for “the many grace notes in the writing” and People called it “a breezy poke at corporate greed and celeb worship."

Koslow’s essays and reporting have been widely published in The New Observer, O the Oprah Magazine, More and other women’s magazines. She is currently finishing her second novel, and also teaches at The Writing Institute at Sarah Lawrence College at the New York Writer’s Workshop.
