Tracy E. Gilchrist

Tracy E. Gilchrist, a self-confessed cinephile with a degree in film theory from Mount Holyoke College, has acted as SheWired's Editor in Chief since its 2008 inception. Formerly, she worked as Senior Editor for Here Media's pioneering Lesbiannation.com. New to Los Angeles in 2006, she landed a job reporting for the now, Pulitzer-nominated, The National Enquirer, but soon moved on after realizing she wanted her life to be about more than sitting outside Kirstie Alley's house on the weekends to see if she gained weight again. Prior to moving to LA from Connecticut Tracy honed her interviewing style covering celebrities and community pioneers as a frequent contributor to Curve and regional LGBT publications including Boston's In Newsweekly and New England's Metroline magazine. She has also contributed entertainment pieces to The Advocate, Advocate.com, Los Angeles magazine and In Los Angeles.
