Anna Halkidis
I’m a journalist and award-winning editor based in New York.
Since 2019, I’ve been an editor at Parents.com where I assign and edit news and trending features that aim to provide trustworthy advice and support to caregivers. I helped produce a spotlight package on navigating the mental load of parenting which won a 2021 Folio Award.
Along with parenting, I cover health, entertainment, and lifestyle. My work has appeared in other publications, including Newsday, Forbes, Better Homes & Gardens, and Women’s eNews, and has also been cited in books. I earned my master’s degree in journalism from the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY.
