CRIS PEARLSTEIN
writer
Native New Yorker, former Fashion Market Director of Redbook magazine, and freelance fashion editor + stylist for Seventeen, Real Simple, Women’s Day, and People, Cris Pearlstein is currently a San Francisco transplant and Contributing Editor to New York Family magazine. Her essays, features, and cover stories focus on motherhood, infertility, feminism and more. In her 20’s she pissed off Heidi Klum, had a business meeting with Kim Kardashian, saw Sofia Vergara naked, and took a dancercize class with Richard Simmons. In her 30’s she moved all over the country, went through four rounds of IVF, finally became a mom, and started a newsletter called “Hi, It’s Your Older Sister”, which she mostly just uses as an excuse to tell people what to do.
