About Gabrielle
Gabrielle Korn is the author of the essay collection Everybody (Else) Is Perfect (Atria, 2021), the novel Yours For The Taking (St. Martin’s Press, December 2023), and its forthcoming sequel, The Shutouts.
Most recently she served as the editorial and publishing lead of Most, Netflix’s digital home for queer storytelling. Under her leadership, Most doubled in size in under a year, launched its first-ever podcast, and won Webby awards.
She's known for her work as the Editor-in-Chief of Nylon Media (2017-2019), where, while overseeing a team of 20 people across five departments, she guided a full print-to-digital transition and rebranded the editorial to reflect more contemporary values and interests, like racial diversity, body positivity, and queer inclusivity, while also creating, writing, and hosting a weekly news show that ran exclusively on Amazon Prime.
She also served as the Director of Fashion & Culture (and, earlier, the Beauty Editor) of Refinery29, where she helped shape what aesthetics mean for a millennial audience, including writing a portion of the brand guide that, almost ten years later, is still used in the brand's marketing materials about inclusivity.
Her writing has been published in Literary Hub, The Millions, Domino, Oprah Magazine, Instyle, Nylon, Refinery29, Autostraddle, The Huffington Post, and more.
