About Me

Carrie Tucker is the contributing style editor for Alternative Press magazine, contributing writer for Filter magazine, and editor-in-chief for Woven Society. She has written for publications such as Vice and Anthem, exploring the shadowy depths of cultural uprisings like web-show Pancake Mountain, the relevance of L.A. restaurants, and bands that are so underground they can’t even reveal their real names for fear of death. With over a decade of experience in marketing, PR, and writing for the music industry and lifestyle brands like Paul Frank and etnies, “youth culture” (shudder) is intrinsic in Tucker’s very being – no matter how much she may not want it to be. Tucker’s first book I Love Geeks: the Official Handbook (Adams Media) was published in 2009, and she currently lives in New York with her video game-addicted boyfriend and their French bulldog Walter Cronkite. Turn-offs include Styrofoam packing materials, the misuse of its vs. it’s and there vs. their, cronyism, and the Internet.
