Students learn how to write about other people-whether famous, ordinary, overlooked, or controversial. They read the work of the best magazine profile writers writing today, and many of those writers will speak to the class in person or via Zoom. Students write several profiles, including a long magazine-length final project. The profiles are workshopped in class. This course is designed for students interested in magazine writing, biography, journalism feature writing, and nonfiction writing that focuses on the lives of other people.
