Jessica Ritz
Freelance writer at Metropolis
Los Angeles, United States
I'm a Los Angeles-based freelance journalist with a professional background in architectural history and historic preservation. I have a B.A. in Art History and American Studies from Wesleyan University in Connecticut, and an M.A. in Urban Planning from UCLA. An incurable generalist, I contribute to a range of print and digital media outlets, mostly covering design, culture, food, and travel. Whether it’s digging into a textile designer’s process or unpacking the enduring appeal of a specific dessert, I love sharing stories about creatives making compelling work in all mediums that shape culture and experiences.
