I’m a dynamic and creative writer known for my ability to distill complex ideas into compelling, relatable stories.

“Deb’s ability to channel and zero in on the voice of a narrative (a brand, a customer, etc.) is uncanny. Actually uncanny. Like kind of weird. Maybe she’s a witch. I cannot be sure. But in any case, she can write like hell.”

Josh Liberson, Founder, Origami Advisory

I created the voices of the award-winning Condé Nast magazines Lucky and domino—voices that have been adopted and emulated by countless outlets, writers, and brands. I’ve done editorial content strategy and copywriting work for brands and organizations including Schumacher, Zappos, Rahua, The Weinberg Center for Elder Justice, One Kings Lane and J. Crew.

“Deb Schwartz is the most empathetic person I’ve ever met.”

Brandon Holley, Founder and CEO of Everywear, former editor-in-chief of Lucky

I’m a lifelong progressive and hard-working reporter who has written for notable outlets on subjects ranging from fair work practices to sexual assault support services to LGBTQI rights.

 “I was a little nervous about the interview but Deb Schwartz put me completely at ease; she was so easy to talk to I felt like we were old friends catching up.”

Meg Lonergan, Interior Designer

My energy, wit, intelligence, and delight in connecting with people make me a pleasure to work with. I’m finishing up a novel, am a student of Zen Buddhism, and a newly hatched power lifter.
