Jessica Pressler Biography

Jessica Pressler is a contributing editor at Vanity Fair and a former staff writer at New York magazine, where she also served as the editor of the magazine’s news blog, "Daily Intelligencer". She has been a regular contributor to GQ, Elle, and the New York Times. Pressler's journalistic contributions have been recognized in the Columbia Journalism School’s anthologies of Best Business Writing in 2012, 2013, and 2015.

Originally from Marblehead, Massachusetts, Pressler moved to New York from Philadelphia, where she had been a staff writer for Philadelphia magazine and the Philadelphia Weekly. She graduated from Temple University with a B.A. in English. After a controversial 2005 piece for the New York Times, dubbed the city as “The Sixth Borough,” Pressler relocated to Queens, New York, which she humorously hints as the next up-and-coming borough.

Pressler's investigative storytelling has notably influenced popular culture. Her 2018 feature for New York, "How Anna Delvey Tricked New York’s Party People", was adapted into the Netflix series "Inventing Anna" (February 2022), created by Shonda Rhimes, where she served as a producer and inspired the character Vivian Kent. Additionally, her 2015 article "Hustlers at Scores" became the basis for the movie "Hustlers", which starred Jennifer Lopez, Constance Wu, Julia Stiles, Keke Palmer, and Cardi B.
