Biography

Molly Wadzeck is a Texas-raised, New York-based journalist and essayist whose work explores culture, motherhood, grief, and mental illness. Her writing has appeared in The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, HuffPost, The Boston Globe, New York Magazine, Business Insider, Scary Mommy, and more. Her Editor’s Choice Award creative nonfiction, an account of navigating treatment for a mental health crisis, was nominated for a Best of the Net award in 2022. Her reporting on reproductive rights & culture has been featured in Romper, Rewire News Group, Yahoo Life, The Progressive, The Public, and in various newsletters and podcasts. In her former life, she rescued animals for a living, first on a farm animal sanctuary, then as the manager of a no-kill shelter and adoption center. She lives in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York with her three children. When not writing or reading, she can be found tangled in aerial silks pretending she’s a circus star, conducting important research binge-watching Bravo, and enjoying the 1000 miles of hiking trails surrounding her Stars Hallow-esque Village. She is currently seeking representation for her memoir-in-progress about mental illness and misadventures.
