Erin O’Donnell

Erin O’Donnell is an experienced writer, reporter, and editor who has produced editorial content for a range of environments, including national magazines, newspapers, websites, blogs, and marketing publications. 

A former senior editor for Natural Health magazine, she has particular expertise in health, food, science, and parenting, but I’ll take on any topic, creating content that is accurate, fresh, and engaging. In a given month, I might write about stem-cell therapies, Internet dating, breast reduction surgery, a celebrity chef with type 1 diabetes, the most accurate way to take your child’s temperature, and solutions for global climate change. I’m equally comfortable with service-heavy, how-to pieces and longer-form features. I’m a skilled interviewer of all types of people.

Her work has appeared in WebMD Magazine (the print extension of the website) and its sister publications, WebMD Diabetes and WebMD Campus, Robb Report Health & Wellness, Harvard Magazine, the Boston Globe Magazine, Babson Magazine, Parents.com, the now defunct Body + Soul, SELF, Dr. Andrew Weil’s Self Healing newsletter, Boy’s Life, and Beliefnet.com. I also produce marketing content for university and hospital clients.

She lives in Wisconsin with her husband and two sons.
