Kit Eaton’s Biography
Read Full Bio →Red-haired, recovering scientist, writer, photographer, thinker, not a dancer, but am terribly unhappy with filling in biography sections on sites like this. Feeling compelled to make a joke. Can't think of one. Hence will just waffle on a bit about my rather zig-zag career to journalism, mention my novel-in-writing, point out that explaining complex things in accessible ways is a specialty of mine, and close with a brief reminder that I, too, never could get the hang of Thursdays.

Writing for Gizmodo
Have you ever used a typewriter?
Yes. I loved typing on one.
How is social media changing news?
Astonishingly, irrevocably, and from the inside out. Immediacy, access and un-verifiability are the watchwords.
