Who I Am
Pamela Babcock is a full-time freelance writer and editor based in the New York City area. A former Washington Post reporter (now a member of the Washington Post Talent Network), I've bylined hundreds of stories for websites, magazines, newspapers and university, association and personal clients. As a corporate writer, I also ghostwrite blogs for executives and other thought leaders.

I've also covered law enforcement and courts, been a spokesman and speechwriter for a Fortune 500 utility, and was director of communications for the North Carolina Museum of Art and for a housing industry start-up.
