Andrea Gurwitt

Communications and Media Relations Expert | Chief of Staff | Editor and Journalist

Award-winning journalist, editor, and communications strategist—from editorial boards to Nobel laureate economists. As Communications Director for Joseph Stiglitz at Columbia University, I turn complex global ideas into stories that reach audiences at The New York Times, Financial Times, Le Monde, La Repubblica, El Pais and beyond. I’ve edited books, launched publications, and helped build media strategy that moves policy. Whether advising institutions or individuals, I bring the same rigor and storytelling instincts that have defined my career.

Global reach. Global impact.

Joseph Stiglitz is one of the most consequential economists in the world. My job is to ensure his voice is heard by the right people at the right moment.

Media Placements and Editing

I take an opinion piece by Joseph Stiglitz from idea to publication, advising on content and structure, refining the argument with him before submission, then working directly with editors at top publications throughout their process.

The same end-to-end approach shaped Stiglitz’s book Road to Freedom. I ran the project from rough draft to finished manuscript, editing each chapter and coordinating with publishers and editors at W.W. Norton and Penguin.

After publication, I partnered with publicity managers across the U.S., U.K., France, Italy, Germany, and Spain to maximize coverage.
