Caroline Mimbs Nyce is the deputy editor of newsletters at The New Yorker.
Previously, she spent nearly a decade at The Atlantic, where she wrote about AI, social media, and our odd digital lives. She’s discussed her work on Marketplace, All Things Considered, and CBS News.
For three years, she wrote The Atlantic’s flagship nightly newsletter, helping guide readers through the early days of the pandemic, the 2020 election, and more. Before that, she worked in strategy, including on the team that built the organization’s iPhone app, which won the 2021 Shorty Award for best news app. She helped shape the magazine’s headline voice, wrote its SEO policy, and ran its social media accounts.
In 2022, she was one of 27 women selected for the Online News Association’s Women’s Leadership Accelerator. Today, she mentors early career journalists through Digital Women Leaders.
She is based in Los Angeles. She has a dog named Rooster, and fosters for a local animal rescue.
