Linley Taber

I'm a New York City-based freelance writer focusing on lifestyle and career topics for publications such as the New York Post, Time Out New York, and CNN.com. A natural-born storyteller and meticulous researcher, I have written everything from service pieces and trend stories to personal essays and profiles. My writing style is sharp, lively, versatile and highly readable. As a former recruiter at a top NYC employment agency, my specialty is career-related topics such as employment trends, workplace issues, and unique professions. For the New York Posts @Work section, I have profiled everyone from a trio of New Yorkers who successfully changed careers late in life, to a group of hot-shot Manhattan interns, to cake maker-to-the-stars Sylvia Weinstock. With an ever-growing network of contacts within the lifestyle and career realm, I'm always looking forward to digging deep into the next hot topic, and producing top-rate stories for my editors.
