Thanks for visiting

I’m Kate Bussmann, and I’m a creative content director, editor, writer broadcaster, content strategist and published author. I’ve written about everything from politics to philosophy, parenthood to pop culture, perimenopause to pretty dresses. I’ve interviewed Hollywood stars, victims of crime, party political leaders.

I work at Expedia Group where, amongst other projects, we have created three magazine sites (for Expedia, Hotels.com and Vrbo), leveraging my extensive experience in digital editorial and content. Previously, I was an editor at The Telegraph. The last project before I left: editing the newspaper’s 28-page tribute to the Queen, which was published the day after her death. I also managed social feeds, and wrote and art directed a hugely successful daily email newsletter, one of the Telegraph’s highest-performing subs converters.

In 2011, I wrote a critically-acclaimed book about Twitter, and over my career, I’ve written for every major national newspaper in the UK, from The Times to The Guardian and Observer to The Daily Mail, plus many more around the world. I’ve appeared live radio and TV including the Today Programme, Channel 4 News and NPR, and I enjoy hosting live events and appearing on panels.

While I’ve lived in New York and Italy, I now live in London with my husband and son. You’ll often find me, cliché that I am, at the lido.
