Emma Levett

With a career spanning magazines, newspapers, and online, Emma Levett has spent much of the last 20-plus years writing about people and things that matter. Starting in the business press in the UK, she also freelanced at national newspapers, including the Sun and the Sunday Express, before making a segue into women’s magazines in 2014. She has held various senior editing positions in both the UK and Australia, and was latterly deputy editor of that’s life! For the last 10 years, Emma has freelanced across a range of media, including online platforms news.com.au, 7News.com.au, and Yahoo News Australia, as well as most of the major magazine mastheads: Woman’s Day, New Idea, Marie Claire, and Cosmopolitan. Interested in anything that moves the ordinary into the realms of the extraordinary, she’s covered stories from the Boxing Day tsunami and Port Arthur tragedy to Rosie Batty’s fight against family violence and Kathleen Folbigg’s release from jail.
